From 2013 to 2023, there were constantly more boys than girls among the unaccompanied minors applying for asylum in Sweden. After the peak in 2015 following the refugee crisis in Europe that year, the number of asylum applications from unaccompanied minors dropped radically. In 2023, 80 girls and 339 boys with the status of unaccompanied minors applied for asylum in Sweden. In total, nearly 12,500 people applied for asylum in Sweden that year.
