About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Panama City Beach 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 Panama City Beach 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 Panama City Beach was 19,393, a 1.77% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Panama City Beach population was 19,055, an increase of 3.76% compared to a population of 18,365 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Panama City Beach increased by 11,657. In this period, the peak population was 19,393 in the year 2023.

This statistic shows the total population of Panama from 2020 to 2023, with projections up until 2030. In 2023, the total population of Panama amounted to approximately 4.45 million inhabitants. Panama's population Even though the population growth trend in Panama is pointing upwards, a total of only 4.42 million people are expected to inhabit the country by 2020. This is about the size of a medium city in many other parts of the world, and it is relatively small in comparison to other South-American countries. The largest city in Panama is its capital, Panama City, located at the Pacific Ocean on the famous Panama Canal, with a population of about 430,000. The second largest city is San Miguelito with 320,000. The Panama Canal serves to fuel the services sector, and the country's overall GDP per capita is increasing steadily. By 2020, GDP per capita is expected to reach around 17,000 U.S. dollars. A total of 16.7 percent of employment still belongs to the agricultural sector, which is quite high considering that agriculture composes a very small share of total GDP. As is the case with many developing countries, agriculture remains an important source of income for many inhabitants. Addtionally, more than half of Panama's inhabitants live in urban areas. This means that while urbanization is still underway a fairly large proportion of inhabitants still live in rural areas.

Urban population growth (annual %) in Panama was reported at 1.8057 % in 2024, according to the World Bank collection of development indicators, compiled from officially recognized sources. Panama - Urban population growth (annual %) - actual values, historical data, forecasts and projections were sourced from the World Bank on August of 2025.
