>Vilnius has overtaken Riga in terms of population. This makes the Lithuanian capital the largest city in the Baltic States in terms of population.
As of 2022, Vilnius has 615,242 inhabitants (as of 30 August 2022), which is 10,000 more than in Riga. The Latvian capital has 605 802 inhabitants, 9 000 fewer than last year. It is the decrease in the population of Riga that has given Vilnius the lead in the Baltics. Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, has a population of 437 811.
Riga’s updated population figures are provided by Statistics Latvia (more information here).
There are significantly more females than males in the city. As of 30 August, 329 321 women and 285 921 men live in Vilnius.
The oldest person in Vilnius is 113 years old, male and lives in Pašilainiai. In total, there are 76 people over 100 years old in Vilnius. Women also lead the way: there are 55 seniors over 100 years old in Vilnius, compared to only 21 men.
The statistics also show which district of the city has the largest number of people. Verkiai (53 767) is in first place, followed by Žirmūnai (43 522) and Pašilaičiai (42 465) in second and third place respectively. Antakalnis (42 288) has slightly fewer people, while Naujoji Vilnia (41 352) rounds off the top five.
