Egypt's population grows by one million in under９ months
The population of Egypt rose to 109.5 million by September 2026, marking an increase of one million residents in less than nine months—that is, over 262 days—compared to 108.5 million at the start of the year. The Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics reviewed the distribution of the population, noting that Cairo had the highest number of residents with 10.5 million, followed by Giza with 9.9 million, as rapid population growth continues across various governorates. The report also indicated that Egypt’s population increased by approximately 95 million over the last century, with a significant rise over the past fifty years, when the population grew from 22.5 million in 1927 to 109.5 million in 2026. By 2035, this would be equivalent to the population of 14 European countries.
