Botswana Population Pyramid (1950–2100)
Botswana in 2026
In 2026, Botswana has an estimated population of 2,603,388 people. That is 16.5% more than in 2016, when the population stood at 2,234,776. The median age is 24.7 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there are 49.6 children under 15 and 6.4 people aged 65 or over. This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
