In 2025, people from 30 to 39 years of age made up the largest age group in Sweden. There were nearly 1.5 million people who belonged to this age group. People aged 50 to 59 years made up the second largest age group in Sweden, followed by people between 40 and 49 years. Moreover, there were over 1.12 million children between zero and nine, and 3,000 people aged 100 years or more. 

Increasing population

Since 2000, the Swedish population increased steadily. This is mainly explained by the country's positive migration flow, but also that more people are being born than people dying.

Decreasing fertility rate

Even though the Swedish population increased steadily during this century, the country's fertility rate decreased steadily since 2010. In 2023, the number of babies born reached a record low. In Europe, however, Sweden's fertility rate is higher than the average.
