For Annual Population Growth Rates (APGR), 2007 Census
reveals 2.04% annual PGR from 2000-2007; while the
projected figure is 2.05% APGR for the period 2000-2005.
This projection is based on the 2000-based Census
projections prepared by NSO.
APGR of 2.04% (2000-2007) indicates a decelerating
momentum from 2005-2007 and if sustained, the projected
APGR in 2010 of 1.95% could be achieved.

This frame on POPCEN 2007 versus projections shows that
2007 actual population count and 2007 PGR are close to
the projected estimates.
2007 Population Projection count at the national level
is lower than the projected estimate (medium assumption)
by a few hundreds.
11 of 17 regions reported lower count in the 2007 POPCEN
than the projected estimates and the difference is a few
hundreds except ARMM.

Projections in Single-Calendar Year Interval, Medium Assumption,

· Since
the 2007 POPCEN results show proximity to the projected
population estimates, medium assumption, POPCOM has
prepared population projections in single year interval
for the period 2008-2015.
· This summary of population projections are lifted from the 2000
Census-based Population Projections prepared by NSO and
approved by NSCB Resolution No. 7 on February 8, 2006
for use in planning and programming purposes.
