This paper examines the recent evolution of Bulgaria's population. It is part of IIASA's comparative study of migration and settlement patterns in its member nations. The paper presents a multiregional demographic analysis of fertility, mortality, and internal migration for a seven-region disaggregation of the Bulgarian state. The results give a detailed view of current spatial population dynamics in the country and offer valuable insights useful for the improvement of national population policy.
