Demografía de Islandia
Este artículo describe las características de la demografía de Islandia
Población
Al 2020, Islandia tiene una población aproximada de 364000 habitantes, de los cuales un 23.7%, aproximadamente 86000, son de origen extranjero [1]. Tiene la densidad poblacional más baja a nivel del continente Europeo.
La población del país está distribuida básicamente en la costa más meridional de la isla. El suroeste es la región más densamente poblada, donde el clima oceánico es más benigno a causa de la influencia directa de la corriente del Golfo.
El centro y norte están prácticamente deshabitados a consecuencia de la aridez de tierras habitualmente cubiertas de hielo y un clima subártico más riguroso, particularmente durante el crudo invierno.
Composición demográfica
La mayoría de los islandeses son descendientes de colonos noruegos y celtas de Irlanda y Escocia, quienes fueron traídos como esclavos durante la época de la colonización.
Recientes análisis de ADN sugieren que alrededor del 66 por ciento de la población de colonos de sexo masculino era de ascendencia nórdica, mientras que la población femenina era del 60 por ciento celta.[2]
Sin embargo, la población islandesa hoy es notablemente homogénea. De acuerdo con estadísticas del gobierno de Islandia, el 99% de los habitantes del país viven en zonas urbanas (localidades con una población superior a 200) y el 60% vive en la zona metropolitana de la capital Reikiavik.
Religión
Alrededor del 74% de la población pertenece a la Iglesia del Estado, la Iglesia Evangélica Luterana, u otras iglesias luteranas. Sin embargo, Islandia tiene completa libertad religiosa, y están presentes otras congregaciones protestantes y católicas, como la Iglesia Libre de Reikiavik 2,4%, o la Iglesia Libre de Hafnarfjorour 1,6%, junto con las pequeñas comunidades de las grandes religiones del mundo.
La nueva comunidad religiosa más notable en Islandia, y en 2003 era una de la más rápido crecimiento, es la Ásatrúarfélagið, un renacimiento legalmente reconocido de la religión pre-cristiana de Islandia.
Idioma
De las lenguas germánicas del Norte, la lengua islandesa es la que está más cerca del lenguaje nórdico antiguo y se ha mantenido relativamente sin cambios desde el siglo 12, siendo una de las más complejas de aprendizaje.
Inmigración
La mayoría de inmigrantes provienen de Polonia, Lituania Y Dinamarca. El mayor grupo latinoamericano son los colombianos con 127 residentes.

Due to a shortage of labor,[3] immigration to Iceland will most likely increase in the future.[4] Estimates show that the number of immigrants could be as high as 15% of the total population by 2030.[4]
Etnias
Grupos étnicos: una mezcla homogénea de descendientes de noruegos y celtas 94%, población de origen extranjero: 6%.
