Migration to Northern Ireland rises to 15-year high

Overall, the population in Northern Ireland increased by 9,800 people to 1.92m last year with the rest of the increase due to “natural change”, meaning there were more births than deaths.

It was the first year since 2007 that population growth was primarily due to migration rather than natural change.

The figure from the NI Statistics and Research Agency (Nisra) are in line with other data released this week by HMRC.

It showed the number of payrolled workers in Northern Ireland increased by 12,900 between December 2022 and December 2023.

That increase consisted of 4,800 UK workers and 9,200 workers from outside of the UK or EU.
