dbo:abstract | Karachi is the largest and most populous city in Pakistan. The population of Karachi is estimated to be around 16 million (16,093,786) in 2020. The population and demographic distribution in the megacity has undergone numerous changes over the past 150 years. On 14 August 1947, when it became the capital city of Pakistan, its population was about 450,000 inhabitants However, the population rapidly grew with large influx of Muslim refugees after independence in 1947. By 1951, the city population had crossed one million mark. in the following decade, the rate of growth of Karachi was over 80 percent. Today, the city has grown 60 times its size in 1947 when it became the country's first capital. Although, Islamabad remains the nation's capital since the 1960s, the city's population continues to grow at about 5% per annum, largely thanks to its strong economic base. A person from Karachi is known as a Karachiite. (en) Карачи — крупнейший и наиболее густонаселённый город в Пакистане. Население и демографическая ситуация в мегаполисе неоднократно менялись за последние 150 лет. 15 августа 1947 года, когда Карачи стал столицей новообразованного доминиона Пакистана, его население составляло около 450,000 жителей. Тем не менее, население быстро росло с большим притоком беженцев из соседнего Индийского союза (после раздела Британской Индии). К 1951 году, население города преодолело отметку в 1 миллион. в следующие десятилетия, рост населения Карачи составлял около 80 %. Население города выросло в 60 раз по сравнению 1947 года с сегодняшним днём. Несмотря на то, что Исламабад служит столицей страны с 1960-х годов, население Карачи продолжает расти со скоростью 5 % в год, во многом это связано с сильной для Пакистана экономической базой города .
