The INE projection based on the 2018 census, cited by the Vice-Presidency in the Government Policy 2024-2028, puts the total population at 17,843,132 in 2024: 8,777,379 men and 9,065,753 women. The projected population growth rate is 1.32% for 2024–2025, falling to 1.14% by 2030. The figure is an official projection, not a recent census count.
The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
