Population Census 2022
The 2022 Population Census, the seventh since the establishment of the State of Israel, took place between April 3 and December 31, 2022.
The Census is a large-scale statistical operation whose purpose is to collect data on demographic, social, and economic aspects of the country's population. These data form an important information base available to local and national policymakers, researchers, research institutes, public and private companies, journalists, and the general public. Initial outcomes from the 2022 Census are available on an innovative dashboard on the CBS website. At the same time, we continue to develop additional tools and outputs. For more information and customized outputs, you can contact the Statistics Information Center.
What's next?
The next population census is planned as an administrative census. It will be based on administrative data and information, along with innovative tools and models for data analysis. An administrative census will conserve resources and reduce the response burden on residents. It will be conducted more often than previous censuses, allowing us to obtain more frequent and up-to-date census information.
