From a total number of the country’s population, the total number of men is 3,817,000 and the total number of women is 3,747,500,” Murodov said.
According to the preliminary data, the population of the Gorno Badakhshan Autonomous Region (GBAO) is 227,200 (206,000 in 2010), Sughd province – 2,770,000 (2,233,000 in 2010), Khatlon province – 3,444,000 (2,677,000 in 2010), Dushanbe – 948,800 (724,000 in 2010), districts and cities subordinate to the center – 2,270,000 (1,722,000 in 2010).
According to some sources, Tajikistan is projected to continue growing at a relatively quick rate for the rest of the 21st century. According to current projections, Tajikistan’s population will reach 16.2 million by 2050 and 25.33 million by the end of the century.
