Urban population refers to people living in urban areas as defined by national statistical offices. The data are collected and smoothed by United Nations Population Division.
In 2021, the share of the population living in urban areas in Thailand was around 52.2 percent, which was an increase from 2019. In comparison, Singapore is the only country in Southeast Asia that has 100 percent of urban population in the country.
