The share of urban population in Laos increased by 0.7 percentage points (+1.86 percent) in 2023 in comparison to the previous year. Therefore, the share in Laos reached a peak in 2023 with 38.25 percent. Notably, the share continuously increased over the last years. The urban population refers to the share of the total population living in urban centers. Each country has their own definition of what constitutes an urban center (based on population size, area, or space between dwellings, among others), therefore international comparisons may be inconsistent.
