Malabo has a population of 155,963, making it the 2nd largest place we list in Equatorial Guinea. It is in Bioko Norte.

Malabo holds 7.9% of Equatorial Guinea's 1,984,468 people. Bata, the largest place we list there, is only slightly larger. The World Gazetteer published 155,963 for Malabo in 2005 and GeoNames still carries that same figure, so there is no measured change to report.

Figures are the latest available in GeoNames (CC BY 4.0), which draws on national censuses of varying dates — treat them as recent, not same-year. Country totals are UN World Population Prospects 2024 (medium variant) where the UN lists the country separately; the handful it reports under a parent state keep a GeoNames figure and are marked as such.
