How these numbers are made. Nobody counts people in real time. Each figure is recomputed every frame from a World Bank anchor and rate: pop(now) = 579,704 + 0.0000/s × elapsed since 1 Jul 2025 births/day = 12 (crude birth rate 7.70/1,000, 2024) deaths/day = 12 (crude death rate 7.30/1,000, 2024) Births and deaths are estimates for a hypothetical average day; they do not reflect seasonality, and the migration figure is a 5-year average. World Bank's separately published growth rate is 1.89%/yr; the rate shown above is derived from the components so it always agrees with the counter. Full method →
