This statistic shows the estimated population of British Columbia, Canada from 2000 to 2023. In 2023, the estimated population of British Columbia was about 5.52 million people. This is an increase from 2000, when there were about 4.04 million people living in British Columbia.

Sub-provincial population estimates and projections by age and gender for a variety of region types. Customizable breakdowns for counts and additional statistics are available via BC Stats' Population App. Estimates: A population estimate is a measure of the current or historical population. BC Stats annually releases total population estimates for sub-provincial region types. These estimates are consistent in aggregate with the July 1st provincial level estimates produced by Statistics Canada. More information can be found on BC Stats' Population Estimates page. Projections: A population projection is a forecast of future population growth. BC Stats applies the Component/Cohort-Survival method to project the population. This method "grows" the population from the latest base year estimate by forecasting births, deaths and migration by age. These forecasts are based on past trends modified to account for possible future changes and, consequently, should be viewed as only one possible scenario of future population. Projections are also released annually and are as of July 1st. The methodological document, P.E.O.P.L.E. Sub-provincial Population Projections: Methodology and Assumptions, is provided only for reference. More information can be found on BC Stats' Population Projections page.

Population is the sum of births plus in-migration, and it signifies the total market size possible in the area. This is an important metric for economic developers to measure their economic health and investment attraction. Businesses also use this as a metric for market size when evaluating startup, expansion or relocation decisions.

Sub-provincial household estimates and projections for various region types of British Columbia including Development Regions, Regional Districts, incorporated municipalities and other regions. The data set includes the number and average number of persons per household for every sub-provincial region. Customizable data breakdowns are available via BC Stats' Household Estimates & Projections application. Estimates: BC Stats releases annual household estimates for sub-provincial regions as of July 1st of every year. These estimates are calculated using a parametric model adjusted from Census data and the annual population estimates by BC Stats. Projections: BC Stats applies the same parametric model used for the household estimates to the population projections produced annually by BC Stats to produce household projections. The projections are produced for every region type described above. More information can be found on BC Stats’ Household Projections page.

This statistic shows the population distribution of British Columbia, Canada in 2016, by urban/rural type. In 2016, 61.8 percent of British Columbia's population lived in large urban population centers.

Contained within the 1st Edition (1906) of the Atlas of Canada is a plate that shows two maps. The maps show the density of population per square mile for every township in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, Alberta, circa 1901. The statistics from the 1901 census are used, yet the population of Saskatchewan and Alberta is shown as confined within the vicinity of the railways, this is because the railways have been brought up to date of publication, 1906. Cities and towns of 5000 inhabitants or more are shown as black dots. The size of the circle is proportionate to the population. The map uses eight classes, seven of which are shades of brown, more densely populated portions are shown in the darker tints. Numbers make it clear which class is being shown in any one township. Major railway systems are shown. The map also displays the rectangular survey system which records the land that is available to the public. This grid like system is divided into sections, townships, range, and meridian from mid-Manitoba to Alberta.

This record contains Grizzly Bear population estimates for British Columbia for multiple years: 2012, 2015 and 2018. The 2012 Grizzly Bear population estimate report for British Columbia report is available here: http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/fw/wildlife/docs/Grizzly_Bear_Pop_Est_Report_Final_2012.pdf. The 2018 Grizzly Bear population estimate report for British Columbia report is available here: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/environment/plants-animals-and-ecosystems/wildlife-wildlife-habitat/grizzly-bears/grizzly_bear_pop_est_report_2018_final.pdf Grizzly Bear population estimates for 2015 & 2018 are provided below in tabular comma separated value (.csv) file format, as well as a zipped (.zip) Esri file geodatabase (.gdb) spatial data file format. There is no spatial difference between the 2015 & 2018 spatial data polygons, as only the population estimate numbers in the spatial data's attribute table were updated (and only if a change in population estimates occurred from 2015 to 2018). 2015 population estimates are based on 2012 numbers, but adjusted to the revised GBPU sub-units. The 2015 & 2018 population estimates in the comma separated value (.csv) tables are provided in two units: 1. Grizzly Bear Population Unit (GBPU) and 2. GBPU sub-unit. The sub-units are composed of Grizzly Bear Population Unit (GBPU), Wildlife Management Unit (WMU), Limited Entry Hunting (LEH) and National Park boundaries, taken at the time of this data's creation. Note that that these boundaries are not coincident. Slight adjustments have been made to some polygons where needed to align the original linework to create the GBPU sub-units. Therefore, do not dissolve the GBPU sub-units to replicate the source data. Bear density is given in number of bears per 1,000 square kilometers, based on the net polygon area. The net polygon area excludes ice and water features from the Baseline Thematic Mapping dataset (https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/134fdc69-7b0c-4c50-b77c-e8f2553a1d40). Ice and water features can be identified by using this selection criteria: PRESENT_LAND_USE_LABEL IN ('Fresh Water', 'Salt Water', 'Glaciers and Snow').

Boundaries identifying similar behavioural ecotypes and sub-populations of Grizzly bears. This dataset contains versions from multiple years. From 2018 on, NatureServe conservation concern ranking categories (e.g., Very Low, Low, Moderate, High, Extreme Concern) supersede the pre-2018 population status categories (e.g., Viable, Threatened, Extirpated) contained in the field STATUS. NatureServe conservation concern ranking categories reflect population size and trend, genetic and demographic isolation, as well as threats to bears and their habitats. The NatureServe conservation concern ranking fields are named CONSERVATION_CONCERN_RANK and CONSERVATION_CONCERN_DESC.
