The demography of Tokyo is analysed by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and data is produced for each of the Special wards of Tokyo, the Western Tokyo and the Tokyo Islands, and for all of Tokyo prefecture as a whole.[1] Statistical information is produced about the size and geographical breakdown of the population, the number of people entering and leaving country and the number of people in each demographic subgroup.
As of 2025, the total population of Tokyo is 14,195,730 and had the largest population (11.5 percent of the total population).[2][3]

Before Tokyo existed as a major population center, the area was known as Edo, a modest fishing village. Population estimates suggest only a few thousand inhabitants, largely engaged in fishing, agriculture, and local trade. In 1603, Tokugawa Ieyasu established the Tokugawa shogunate, making Edo the de facto political capital of Japan. Rapid urbanization followed as samurai, artisans, merchants, and laborers migrated to serve the shogunate. By 1721, Edo’s population surpassed 1 million, making it one of the largest cities in the world at the time. This growth was driven by the sankin-kōtai policy, which required feudal lords (daimyō) and their vast retinues to reside in Edo in alternate years.
Emperor Meiji was brought from Kyoto to lead the Meiji Restoration, which formed a new imperial government.[4] The population reached two million in 1905.[5] Tokyo's population continued to grow from 3.7 million in 1920, when the first census was taken, to 4,48 million in 1925. In 1923, the Great Kanto earthquake caused 75% of all buildings suffered severe structural damage. Although 2% to 3% of the population (over 100,000 people) were killed the population still grew.[6][7] The Population reached 7.35 million in 1940 and recovery was rapid, but the Bombing of Tokyo duting World War II (1944–1945) caused mass casualties and evacuations, dramatically reducing the city’s population by war’s end falling to 3.49 million in 1945.
Post-war expansion
In the postwar era and an increase in the number of births due to the first baby boom, the population rapidly increased from 3.49 million to 6.28 million between 1945 and 1950, and continued to grow thereafter, although the rate of increase slowed, until it reached 11.67 million in 1975. Sustained migration from rural Japan throughout the 1960s and 70s created a massive urban sprawl. By the 1980s, "Greater Tokyo" (including neighboring prefectures like Saitama and Kanagawa) solidified its rank as the world's most populous metropolitan area. The population remained almost flat from 1975 to 1995, but then began to increase, reaching 13.16 million in 2010.[8]
Internal migration to Tokyo has steadily increased since 2022 following a brief slowdown during the COVID-19 pandemic.[9] The trend resumed after the pandemic and fully rebounded by 2023–2024.[10] Despite the influx of youth, Tokyo faces an aging population; as of 2024, approximately 23% of residents are over age 65. International residents now exceed 647,000, with the largest groups originating from China, South Korea, and Vietnam.
Vital statistics
The number of births in Tokyo peaked in the post-war period at 240,000 in 1967, remaining at around 230,000 until 1973, after which it began to decline, remaining at around 100,000 since 1989. Meanwhile, the number of deaths has been on a gradual increase since 1956, reaching a post-war high of 110,000 in 2013. Looking at the trends in natural increase/decrease (births - deaths), with the exception of 1945, the number of births has consistently exceeded the number of deaths since 1920, but the natural increase has shrunk since peaking in 1967, and in 2012 the number of deaths exceeded the number of births for the first time since the war.[11][12]

Total fertility rate by district
Influx of single women has been driving Tokyo birth rate to lowest in Japan, since the high cost of living is a deterrent to marriage and childbearing.[14][15] TFR calculation is strongly linked to marriage in Japan, where very few children are born outside of wedlock. Even when women do marry, the average age of first childbirth is the highest in Tokyo, shortening the total reproductive window[16]. The total fertility rate for 2023 was 0.99 in Tokyo, the only prefecture in Japan that did not reach 1.00[17]

Migration
Domestic migration
With very few exceptions, Tokyo Prefecture has always consistently recorded a net positive migration (more people moving in than moving out) every year for decades. This has led to an extreme concentration of Japan's population, resources, and economic activity in the Greater Tokyo Area (Tokyo, Saitama, Chiba, Kanagawa). The net inflow is overwhelmingly concentrated among young adults, specifically those aged 15 to 29 who move for education and work. This constant infusion of young people helps Tokyo maintain a younger labor force compared to the rapidly aging rest of Japan.[18]

Multiculturalism
Foreign population in Tokyo (as of January 1 of each year)[20][21]
Foreign residents by nationality
The number of foreign residents has consistently risen over the past decade, a trend that resumed strongly after a temporary dip during the COVID-19 pandemic years[22]. Foreign residents are increasingly vital to Tokyo's economy. The sustained growth has prompted the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and local ward offices to develop policies for greater multicultural coexistence, focusing on language support, social integration, and addressing housing and cultural needs[23].

Foreign residents by district
Within Tokyo, the foreign population is concentrated in the 23 Special Wards (Ku), which account for the vast majority of foreign residents. High-Density Wards like Shinjuku, Toshima, and Arakawa have a particularly high ratio of foreign residents to the total ward population (in some cases exceeding 10%). Certain areas are known for distinct communities: Ikebukuro (Toshima Ward) is known for a large Chinese community (often called "Ikebukuro Chinatown"). Okubo (Shinjuku Ward) / Arakawa Ward is known for having established Nepalese and Vietnamese communities, sometimes referred to as "Little Kathmandu."[25]
