This graph shows Denmark's total population from the year 1769 until 2020. Generally speaking, Denmark's population has been growing at a rather steady rate for the past 250 years. The numbers begin in 1769 where Denmark's population was approximately 798 thousand; it then grows at a consistent rate for the next 210 years, before the population decreases slightly in the 1980s. This dip in population is attributed to a decrease in the fertility rate across Europe during this time, resulting from improvements and increased access to contraception. The population then begins growing again in the late 1980s, due to a positive net migration rate and ageing population; today, the population is just under 5.8 million people.
