Important: These are model inputs, not a measured city age profile. Country-level birth, death and life-expectancy values are applied to the city baseline because city-level vital statistics are not available consistently for every location in this dataset.
The imported city population is the baseline observation used by this page. We do not present reconstructed historical city populations as observed facts because applying today's national birth/death rates backward would not account for migration, boundary changes or historical rate changes.
If current national birth and death rates stayed constant and migration were ignored, the model would produce 136,829 by 2030, 168,436 by 2040, and 207,344 by 2050. This is a scenario calculation, not an official forecast. It assumes constant rates and excludes migration, boundary changes, policy and economic shifts.
Ho is a medium-sized city located in Ghana. With an estimated population of 125,914 people, it represents a significant urban center within the country. The city operates in the Africa/Accra time zone (UTC+0:00), placing it among the cities that share this temporal region.
Demographically, Ho has a growing natural-change estimate. With a birth rate of 28 and a death rate of 7 per 1,000 residents annually, the population is rapidly growing. The average life expectancy stands at 64.0 years, reflecting the overall health and living conditions in the region. The model estimates approximately 3,526 births and 881 deaths per year, resulting in a net change of 2,645 people per year.
The live counters on this page provide continuously updated estimates based on these annual rates, calculating births, deaths, and population changes from our baseline data date of 2026-05-20. These figures offer valuable insights into the demographic dynamics of Ho and its position within Ghana's urban landscape.
