Data notes & caveats

The figure is an official estimate for 1 January 2025 rather than a census count or annual-average population; values are expressed in millions.

Methodology

The Rosstat point estimate is retained in its source unit of thousand people. The compact public value divides the source number by 1,000 to express the same total in millions.

Source consistency notes

The focal value uses one Federal State Statistics Service (Rosstat) source, one period and one measurement basis.
