Worldwide, the male population is slightly higher than the female population, although this varies by country. As of 2024, Hong Kong has the highest share of women worldwide with almost ** percent. Moldova followed behind with around ** percent. Among the countries with the largest share of women in the total population, several were former Soviet states or were located in Eastern Europe.

Worldwide, the male population is slightly higher than the female population. As of 2024, the country with the highest percentage of men was Qatar, with only slightly more than *********** of the total population being women. The United Arab Emirates followed with ** percent. Different factors can influence the gender distribution in a population, such as life expectancy, the sex ratio at birth, and immigration. For instance, in Qatar, the large share of males is due to the high immigration flows of male labor in the country.

Alaska had the highest male to female ratio in the United States in 2020, with ***** men for every 100 women. The male to female ratio was lowest in the District of Columbia, with **** men for every 100 women. The final frontier Alaska, which was purchased from the Russian Empire in 1867, is the largest state in the U.S. and one of the newest states, having been admitted to the U.S. in 1959. Although oil production dominates the economy, Alaska has a very high poverty rate and consistently has the highest unemployment rate in the country. It’s a man’s world Alaska is one of 10 states in the U.S. that has more men than women. The male to female ratio in the United States as a whole is about even, but as the population ages, there tend to be more females than males. Even though the sex ratio in the U.S. is almost one to one, a little more than ** percent of all females participated in the labor force in 2021, compared with **** percent of men.

In 2020, Germany remained the largest population in the European Union with over 83 million inhabitants. Most European countries have a larger female than male population. Only in Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Serbia, and Sweden constitute men the majority of inhabitants. Germany had the largest population of both genders in Europe, with 42.1 million women and 41 million men.

Graph and download economic data for Ratio of Female to Male Secondary School Enrollment for Low and Middle Income Countries (SEENRSECOFMZSLMY) from 1970 to 2020 about enrolled, secondary schooling, secondary, ratio, females, males, education, and income.

In 2022, there were around **** male births per female births in China and Vietnam, respectively. Comparatively, in Sri Lanka, the gender ratio was **** male to female births that year.

The average for 2021 based on 4 countries was 1.03 percent. The highest value was in Dominican Republic: 1.1 percent and the lowest value was in Peru: 0.95 percent. The indicator is available from 1970 to 2022. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

The Second World War severely altered the demographic composition of many countries, particularly in terms of gender ratios across certain age groups. For age groups below 14 years, there is little observable impact of the war on gender ratios, however, some countries see a drastic change across older generations, particularly in the Soviet Union. For men in their twenties (i.e. those in their late-teens or early-twenties when the war began), the ratio drops from 98 men per 100 women in the 15-19 age group, to 68 men per 100 women in the 25-29 group.

In addition to the Second World War, these figures are affected by trends in nature and other historical events. For example, women tend to have higher overall life expectancies than men, which typically sees gender ratios widen among older generations. The impact of the First World War is also most-observable in France's gender ratios for those aged in their fifties. Additionally, the gap in ratios remains high for the Soviet Union across older age groups due to the impact of the First World War and the famine of the early 1930s, however the figures for Russia itself are even lower as it was disproportionately affected by the Russian Revolution and famine of the 1920s.

About this dataset
