The share of urban population in Suriname saw no significant changes in 2023 in comparison to the previous year 2022 and remained at around 66.41 percent. Nevertheless, 2023 still represents a peak in the share in Suriname. A population may be defined as urban depending on the size (population or area) or population density of the village, town, or city. The urbanization rate then refers to the share of the total population who live in an urban setting. International comparisons may be inconsistent due to differing parameters for what constitutes an urban center.
