[[File:Population density in Switzerland.png|400px|thumb|Population density in Switzerland, by [[Districts of Switzerland|district]]]]

[[Switzerland]] has 9 million inhabitants, as of June 2024.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-09-19 |title=Schweiz zählt über neun Millionen Einwohnerinnen und Einwohner |url=https://www.srf.ch/news/schweiz/staendige-wohnbevoelkerung-erstmals-hat-die-schweiz-offiziell-neun-millionen-einwohner |access-date=2024-09-22 |website=Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen (SRF) |language=de}}</ref> Its population quadrupled over the period 1800 to 1990 (average [[doubling time]] 95 years). Population growth was steepest in the period after [[Switzerland during the World Wars|World War II]] (1.4% per annum during 1950–1970, doubling time 50 years), it slowed during the 1970s and 1980s but has since increased to 1% during the 2000s (doubling time 70 years).

More than 75% of the population live in the [[Swiss Plateau|central plain]], which stretches between the [[Swiss Alps|Alps]] and the [[Jura Mountains]] and from [[Geneva]] in the southwest to the [[High Rhine]] and [[Lake Constance]] in the northeast.

As of 2023, 40% of the population has a migrant background and 31% are foreign residents.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/en/home/statistics/population/migration-integration/by-migration-status.html | title=Population by migration status }}</ref>

{{Main|Census in Switzerland}}
The ''Federal Population Census'' ({{langx|de|Eidgenössische Volkszählung}}, {{langx|fr|Recensement fédéral de la population}}, {{langx|it|Censimento federale della popolazione}}, {{langx|rm|Dumbraziun federala dal pievel}}) has been carried out every 10 years starting in 1850.<ref>with the exceptions of the censuses of 1888 and 1941.</ref> The census was initiated by [[Swiss Federal Council|Federal Councillor]] [[Stefano Franscini]], who evaluated the data of the first census all by himself after Parliament failed to provide the necessary funds.<ref>[http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/en/index/infothek/erhebungen__quellen/blank/blank/vz/geschichte.html History of the Federal Population Census], Swiss Federal Statistical Office, accessed October 2007</ref> The census is now conducted by the [[Swiss Federal Statistical Office]], which makes most results available on its [https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/en/home/statistics/population.html website].

Collected data includes population data (citizenship, place of residence, place of birth, position in household, number of children, religion, languages, education, profession, place of work, etc.), household data (number of individuals living in the household, etc.), accommodation data (surface area, amount of rent paid, etc.) and building data (geo[[coordinate]]s, time of construction, number of floors, etc.). Participation is compulsory and reached 99.87% of the population in 2000.<ref>[http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/en/index/infothek/erhebungen__quellen/blank/blank/vz/uebersicht.html Overview of the Federal Population Census] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121115060641/http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/en/index/infothek/erhebungen__quellen/blank/blank/vz/uebersicht.html |date=15 November 2012 }}, Swiss Federal Statistical Office, accessed October 2007</ref>

Since 2010, the population census has been carried out and analysed annually in a new format by the Federal Statistical Office (FSO). In order to ease the burden on the population, the information is primarily drawn from population registers and supplemented by sample surveys. Only a small proportion of the population (about 5%) are surveyed in writing or by telephone. The first reference day for the new census was 31 December 2010.

At the end of 2022, there were about four million private households in Switzerland, of which more than a third are inhabited by only one person. Since 1970, this number has more than tripled.<ref name="SWI swissinfo.ch 2023 r564">{{cite web | title=Number of single-person households triples in Switzerland | website=SWI swissinfo.ch | date=2023-10-05 | url=https://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/number-of-single-person-households-triples-in-switzerland/48863422 | access-date=2023-10-06}}</ref>

=== Growth rate ===
During the 19th and 20th centuries, [[population growth rate]] has been at 0.7% to 0.8%, with a [[doubling time]] of ca. 90 years. In the later 20th century, the growth rate has fallen below 0.7% (1980s: 0.64%; 1990s: 0.65%), and in the 2000s it has risen again slightly (2000&ndash;2006: 0.69%), mostly due to immigration. In 2007 the population grew at a much higher 1.1% rate, again mostly due to immigration. For 2008, the population grew 1.6%, a level not seen since the early 1960s.<ref>{{cite press release

As population growth slows, the percentage of elderly people increases. In July 2015{{Fix|text=out of date}}, the Swiss Federal Office of Statistics published projections indicating that by 2045, the proportion of residents over the retirement age of 65 would climb to 48.1 per 100 residents between 20 and 64 years old, and possibly as high as 50.0 in the highest case scenario. In 2015 that ratio was only 29.1 per 100 residents.<ref name="Scenario" />

[[Image:Switzerland demography 1970-2005.png|thumb|450px|right|The population of Switzerland 1970–2005. Data from Swiss Federal Statistical Office 2005; number of inhabitants in thousands.]]
[[File:Population pyramid of Switzerland in 2021 by citizenship.svg|thumb|Population pyramid of Switzerland in 2021 by citizenship]]
Unlike many other [[OECD]] countries, the Swiss Federal Statistical Office does not collect any data on [[racial identity]] or [[ethnic identity]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://one.oecd.org/document/SDD/DOC(2018)9/en/pdf |title=Diversity statistics in the OECD |publisher=OECD |date=2018 |access-date=2 November 2025 |pages=50-53}}</ref> Data is collected on country of birth, but as the OECD write "In general, collecting migration-related information on the foreign-born population and their children is a crude method for capturing diversity."

Encompassing the [[Central Alps]], [[Switzerland]] sits at the crossroads of several major European cultures. Its population includes a two-thirds majority of [[Alemannic German]] speakers and a one-quarter [[Romance languages|Latin]] minority (French, Italian and [[Romansh language|Romansh]]), see [[linguistic geography of Switzerland]]. 10% of the population natively speak an immigrant language.

Switzerland consistently ranks high on [[quality of life]] indices, including per capita income, concentration of computer and [[internet]] usage per capita, insurance coverage per individual, and health care rates. For these and many other reasons, such as the four languages, it serves as an excellent test market for businesses hoping to introduce new products into Europe.

===Permanent residents by nationality===
The number of registered resident foreigners was 1,001,887 (16.17%) in 1970. This amount decreased to 904,337 (14.34%) in 1979, and has increased steadily since that time, passing the 20% mark during 2001 and rising to 1,524,663 (20.56%) in 2004. The number of Swiss citizens thus numbered about 5.9 million in that year.

In 2013 there were a total of 1,937,447 permanent residents (23.8% of the total population of 8.14 million) in Switzerland. Of these, 1.65 million resident foreigners (85.0%, or 20.2% of the 8.14 million total population),<ref>[http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/de/index/themen/01/01/key.html Bevölkerung – Die wichtigsten Zahlen] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140927025255/http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/de/index/themen/01/01/key.html|date=27 September 2014}} Swiss Federal Statistical Office, accessed 6 October 2014</ref><ref name="Auslander">[https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/de/home/statistiken/bevoelkerung/migration-integration/auslaendische-bevoelkerung.assetdetail.18344247.html Ständige ausländische Wohnbevölkerung nach Staatsangehörigkeit, 1980–2020] Swiss Federal Statistical Office, accessed 16 July 2022</ref> had European citizenship (Italian: 298,875; German: 292,291; Portuguese: 253,227; French: 110,103; Serbian: 90,704; Kosovan: 86,976; Spanish: 75,333, Macedonian: 62,633; British: 40,898; Austrian: 39,494; Bosnian and Herzegovinian: 33,002; Croatian: 30,471). From other continents; 122,941 residents were from Asia; 83,873 from Africa; 78,433 from the Americas; and 4,145 from Oceania.<ref name="Auslander" />

===Naturalization===
In 2004, 35,700 people acquired Swiss citizenship according to [[Swiss nationality law]], a figure slightly larger than that of the previous year (35,424), and four times larger than the 1990 figure (8,658). About a third of those naturalized are from a successor state of [[former Yugoslavia]]: 7,900 Serbia-Montenegro, 2,400 Bosnia-Herzegovina, 2,000 North Macedonia, 1,600 Croatia. 4,200 were from Italy, 3,600 from Turkey, 1,600 from Sri Lanka, 1,200 from Portugal, and 1,200 from France.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/de/index/news/publikationen.Document.66633.pdf| title = Swiss Federal Statistics Office}}</ref>

The yearly rate of naturalization has quintupled over the 1990s and 2000s, from roughly 9,000 to 45,000. Relative to the population of resident foreigners, this amounts to an increase from 8% in 1990 to 27% in 2007,{{clarify|date=November 2014}} or relative to the number of Swiss citizens from 1.6% in 1990 to 7.3% in 2007.{{clarify|date=November 2014}}

The following table shows the historical development of naturalization from selected countries.<ref>[http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/de/index/themen/01/07/blank/data/04.html Federal Office of Statistics – Erwerb des Schweizer Bürgerrechts nach früherer Staatsangehörigkeit] accessed 17 October 2014</ref>

[[Switzerland as a federal state]] has no [[state religion]], though most of the [[cantons of Switzerland|cantons]] (except for [[Canton of Geneva|Geneva]] and [[Canton of Neuchâtel|Neuchâtel]]) recognize official churches (''[[Landeskirche]]n''), in all cases including the [[Catholic Church in Switzerland|Roman Catholic Church]] and the [[Protestant Church of Switzerland]]. These churches, and in some cantons also the [[Old Catholic Church]] and [[Jews|Jewish congregations]], are financed by official [[church tax|taxation of adherents]].<ref name="CHKirchenSteuer">{{cite web |title=Die Kirchensteuern August 2013 |url=http://www.estv.admin.ch/dokumentation/00079/00080/00736/index.html?lang=de&download=NHzLpZeg7t,lnp6I0NTU042l2Z6ln1acy4Zn4Z2qZpnO2Yuq2Z6gpJCDdYR6fGym162epYbg2c_JjKbNoKSn6A-- |publisher=Schweizerische Steuerkonferenz SSK, Swiss Federal Tax Administration FTA, Federal Department of Finance FDF |location=Berne |year=2013 |language=de, fr, it |access-date=2014-04-05 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120125112400/http://www.estv.admin.ch/dokumentation/00079/00080/00736/index.html?lang=de&download=NHzLpZeg7t%2Clnp6I0NTU042l2Z6ln1acy4Zn4Z2qZpnO2Yuq2Z6gpJCDdYR6fGym162epYbg2c_JjKbNoKSn6A-- |archive-date=25 January 2012 |url-status=dead }}, [http://www.estv.admin.ch Swiss Federal Tax Administration]</ref>
