According to allcitypopulation, Lebanon has a population of about 6 million people. The majority of the population is made up of Arabs and Kurds, with smaller populations of Armenians, Circassians, and other ethnicities. Christians make up the majority of the population, with approximately 54% belonging to various Christian denominations. Muslims make up around 45%, while Druze account for the remaining 1%. The vast majority of Lebanese people are living in urban centers such as Beirut, Tripoli and Sidon. The population is growing rapidly due to high fertility rates and a large influx of refugees from neighboring countries. The country has welcomed over 1 million refugees since 2011, mostly Syrians but also Palestinians and Iraqis. This influx has put a strain on resources in Lebanon, causing overcrowding in some areas and an increase in poverty levels. Despite these challenges, Lebanon remains one of the most diverse countries in the Middle East with an impressive mix of cultures that enrich its society.
