Historical dataset of population level and growth rate for the Damascus, Syria metro area from 1950 to 2025.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Damascus population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Damascus across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2023, the population of Damascus was 787, a 0.13% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Damascus population was 786, an increase of 0.13% compared to a population of 785 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Damascus decreased by 222. In this period, the peak population was 1,117 in the year 2003. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

Abstract

Food price inflation is an important metric to inform economic policy but traditional sources of consumer prices are often produced with delay during crises and only at an aggregate level. This may poorly reflect the actual price trends in rural or poverty-stricken areas, where large populations reside in fragile situations. This data set includes food price estimates and is intended to help gain insight in price developments beyond what can be formally measured by traditional methods. The estimates are generated using a machine-learning approach that imputes ongoing subnational price surveys, often with accuracy similar to direct measurement of prices. The data set provides new opportunities to investigate local price dynamics in areas where populations are sensitive to localized price shocks and where traditional data are not available.

        A dataset of monthly food price inflation estimates (aggregated for all food products available in the data) is also available for all countries covered by this modeling exercise.

Geographic coverage notes

The data cover the following sub-national areas: Aleppo, Dar'a, Quneitra, Homs, Deir-ez-Zor, Damascus, Ar-Raqqa, Al-Hasakeh, Hama, As-Sweida, Rural Damascus, Tartous, Idleb, Lattakia, Market Average

The Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) is a suite of methodological tools designed to track and monitor mobility. Leveraging its formal Humanitarian Needs Assessment Programme (HNAP) experience, DTM Syria was activated on 1 February 2025 to collect primary data.

Following the rapid power shift in Damascus on 8 December 2024, Syria is undergoing a pivotal transformation, reshaping its humanitarian, political, and recovery landscape. This change has intensified population movements, exacerbating the complexities of displacement and return patterns.
