[[Demography|Demographic]] features of the population of [[Austria]] include population density, [[Ethnic group|ethnicity]], education level, health of the populace, economic status, [[Religion in Austria|religious affiliations]] and other aspects of the population.

According to the 2001 population census, 88.6% are native German speakers (96% [[Bavarian language|Austro-Bavarian language]] and 4% [[Alemannic German|Alemannic language]]) while the remaining 11.4% speak several minority languages. The non-German speakers of Austria can be divided into two groups: traditional minorities, who are related to territories formerly part of the [[Habsburg monarchy]], and new minorities, resulting from recent immigration.

Despite a low [[fertility rate]] recently making the natural change negative, the Austrian population keeps steadily increasing due to an immigration rate increase compensating for the low amount of births, and by 2023, Austria reached a population of 9 million people.

<ref>Note: Crude migration change (per 1000) is a trend analysis, an extrapolation based average population change (current year minus previous) minus natural change of the current year (see table vital statistics). As average population is an estimate of the population in the middle of the year and not end of the year.</ref>

==Ethnic groups==
===Traditional ethnic minorities in Austria===
Only three numerically significant traditional minority groups exist – 13,109 [[Carinthian Slovenes]] (according to the 2001 census – unofficial estimates of Slovene organisations put the number at 50,000) in Austrian [[Carinthia (state)|Carinthia]] (south central Austria) and about 25,000 [[Burgenland Croats|Croats]] and 20,000 [[Hungarians]] in [[Burgenland]] (on the Hungarian border). The Slovenes (also called 'Windische') form a closely knit community. Their rights as well as those of the Croats are protected by law and generally respected in practice. The present boundaries of Austria, once the center of the [[Habsburg monarchy]] that constituted the second-largest [[composite monarchy]] in Europe, were established in accordance with the [[Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye (1919)|Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye]] in 1919. Some Austrians, particularly near [[Vienna]], still have relatives in countries that made up the Monarchy, namely Croatia, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia and Hungary.

===New ethnic minorities in Austria===
[[Image:COB data Austria.PNG|400px|right|thumb]]
Austria does not collect data on the ethnicity or race of its citizens but does collect data on the nationality of residents currently in the country.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Shendruk |first=Amanda |date=8 July 2021 |title=Are you even trying to stop racism if you don't collect data on race? |url=https://qz.com/2029525/the-20-countries-that-dont-collect-racial-and-ethnic-census-data/ |access-date=2022-07-04 |website=Quartz |language=en}}</ref>

According to the Austrian Statistical Bureau, 814,800 foreigners legally lived in Austria in mid-2006, representing 9.8% of the total population, one of the highest rates in Europe.

Of these foreign residents, 305,100 came from the [[former Yugoslavia]] and 110,800 from Turkey.

Owing to a growing naturalization rate, 330,000 people have been naturalized between 1985 and the end of 2003, representing about 4% of the 7.4&nbsp;million Austrian citizens living today in the country.{{citation needed|date=January 2022}}

Of these new citizens 110,000 came from the former Yugoslavia and 90,000 from Turkey.{{citation needed|date=January 2022}} Considering pre-1985 naturalizations, in 2005 at least 18% (in Vienna more than 30%) of the population was either foreign or of foreign origin. Native Austrians have had stagnant demographics since World War I, and have been in absolute decline since the 1970s.{{citation needed|date=January 2022}}

===Immigration===

According to [[Eurostat]], there were 1.27&nbsp;million foreign-born residents in Austria in 2010, corresponding to 15.2% of the total population. Of these, 764,000 (9.1%) were born outside the EU and 512,000 (6.1%) were born in another EU member state.<ref>[http://immigration-to.net76.net/immigration-to-australia.htm 6.5% of the EU population are foreigners and 9.4% are born abroad] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131017184711/http://immigration-to.net76.net/immigration-to-australia.htm |date=17 October 2013 }}, Eurostat, Katya VASILEVA, 34/2011.</ref>

At about 3% of the total population, they make up the biggest single ethnic minority in Austria.

In 2018, the percentage of foreign born people was around 19% of the total population which is also the second highest foreign born proportion of all EU countries after Luxembourg.
