✓ Methodology disclosedDataset/model last materially updated May 20, 2026 · Methodology · Data Sources
📊Methodology: Live counters estimate births and deaths using annual demographic rates applied to the base population. Births are calculated as (population × birth rate ÷ 1000) ÷ 365.25 ÷ 24 ÷ 60 ÷ 60 per second. Deaths use the same formula with the death rate. Population change is the net difference between cumulative births and deaths since the baseline data date. These are statistical approximations, not live vital-registration data.
⚠️Data Transparency: The population figure for Şabyā (228,375) comes from our city database (SimpleMaps World Cities Database) and may differ from official census figures. Birth rate (16.3/1,000) and death rate (3.5/1,000) are country-level averages from UN World Population Prospects & World Bank applied to all cities in Saudi Arabia — individual city rates may vary. Life expectancy (75.0 yrs) is also a national estimate. Live counters are mathematical estimates from our baseline date (2026-05-20), not live vital-registration. City data: SimpleMaps World Cities Database. Demographic rates: UN World Population Prospects & World Bank. Displayed times use the closest available timezone data and may be approximate for some cities.

Baseline & Model Scope

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.

Natural-Change Scenario

If current national birth and death rates stayed constant and migration were ignored, the model would produce 240,294 by 2030, 272,885 by 2040, and 309,897 by 2050. This is a scenario calculation, not an official forecast. It assumes constant rates and excludes migration, boundary changes, policy and economic shifts.
