Population geography

Population geography relates to variations in the distribution, composition, migration, and growth of populations. Population geography involves demography in a geographical perspective.^[a] It focuses on the characteristics of population distributions that change in a spatial context. This often involves factors such as where population is found and how the size and composition of these population is regulated by the demographic processes of fertility, mortality, and migration.^[1]

Contributions to population geography are cross-disciplinary because geographical epistemologies related to environment, place and space have been developed at various times.^[2] Related disciplines include geography, demography, sociology, and economics.
