Laiagam has a population of 921, making it the 43rd largest place we list in Papua New Guinea. It is in Enga Province.

Laiagam holds under a tenth of one per cent of Papua New Guinea's 10,947,848 people. Port Moresby, the largest place we list there, is 308 times its size. The World Gazetteer published 921 for Laiagam 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.
