Kokopo has a population of 26,273, making it the 7th largest place we list in Papua New Guinea. It is in East New Britain Province.
Kokopo holds 0.24% of Papua New Guinea's 10,947,848 people. Port Moresby, the largest place we list there, is 11 times its size. The World Gazetteer published 26,273 for Kokopo in 2005 and GeoNames still carries that same figure, so there is no measured change to report.
The 2005 figure comes from the World Gazetteer archive restored on this site. Why figures differ.

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.
