About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Alberta 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 Alberta 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 Alberta was 296, a 0.34% decrease year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Alberta population was 297, a decline of 1.66% compared to a population of 302 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Alberta decreased by 11. In this period, the peak population was 307 in the year 2000. 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).

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

Estimated number of persons by quarter of a year and by year, Canada, provinces and territories.

These long-term population projections by single year of age and gender have been developed by applying the component cohort survival model to assumptions about future trends in fertility, mortality and migration, under three different sets of assumptions (i.e. low, medium and high scenarios) at the Alberta level. Includes estimated (2001-2023) and projected (2024-2051) population of Alberta and its sub-regions, by single year of age and gender, as well as selected summary tables. PLEASE NOTE updated projections for 2025-2051 are now available. See the Related tab above for a link to the updated projections.

This Alberta Official Statistic compares Alberta and Canada’s population growth rates between the 1986 and 2011 Censuses of Population. Population growth is the increase (or decrease) in the number of persons in the population between two points in time as a result of natural increase and net migration. It is expressed as a percentage of the population at the beginning of the time period. In between the last six censuses, the growth rate of Alberta’s population has always exceeded the national average except between1986 and 1991. The growth rate was 10.8% between the 2006 and 2011 censuses, almost double the national growth rate (5.9%) for the same period, and 10.6% between 2001 and 2006 compared to the national average of 5.4%.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Alberta population distribution across 18 age groups. It lists the population in each age group along with the percentage population relative of the total population for Alberta. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of Alberta by age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group in Alberta.

Key observations

The largest age group in Alberta, VA was for the group of age 65 to 69 years years with a population of 40 (16.06%), according to the ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. At the same time, the smallest age group in Alberta, VA was the 10 to 14 years years with a population of 4 (1.61%).

This statistic shows the population of Alberta in 2023, by highest level of education achieved. In 2023, about ******* people in Alberta possessed a Bachelor's degree.

A population projection is a forecast of future population growth. Future population growth for Alberta is projected under three different growth scenarios: the medium, or reference, scenario and high- and low-growth scenarios. Projections of each component of population growth (fertility, mortality and migration) are developed based on past trends, modified to account for possible future patterns of change. This package contains the full report of population projections for Alberta and its 132 local geographic areas for the period 2025 to 2051, as well as a highlights fact sheet and a methodology and assumptions document.

Updated annually, this infographic illustrates facts about Alberta population projections to 2051. A population projection is a forecast of future population growth.

This statistic shows the population of Alberta in 2016, by ethnic origin. In that year, about ******* people in Alberta reported being of North American Aboriginal origin.

This Alberta Official Statistic compares the distribution of Alberta’s population by age and sex for two Census years (2006 and 2011). Age and sex are the most basic characteristics of a population. Every population has a different age and sex composition – the number and proportion of males and females in each age group. These characteristics are typically represented in a population pyramid.

Figure 2.1 profiles the population distribution by age group for both the local geographic area and Alberta, as at March 31 of the most recent fiscal year available. This table is part of "Alberta Health Primary Health Care - Community Profiles" report published March 2019.

In 2048, the population in Manitoba is projected to reach about 1.84 million people. This is compared to a population of 1.46 million people in 2024.

These long-term population projections by single year of age and sex have been developed by applying the component cohort survival model to assumptions about future trends in fertility, mortality and migration, under three different sets of assumptions (i.e. low, medium and high scenarios). Includes estimated (1996-2022) and projected (2023-2051) population of Alberta and its 19 census divisions, by single year of age and sex, as well as selected summary tables.
