The population of the city proper (French: ''[[Commune of France|commune]]'') was 511,684 as of January 2022, with 1,513,396 inhabitants in the [[functional area (France)|metropolitan area]],<ref name=compterr/> up from 1,268,438 at the January 2009 census.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://statistiques-locales.insee.fr/#c=indicator&i=pop_depuis_1876.pop&s=2008&selcodgeo=005&view=map13 |title=Statistiques locales - Toulouse : Aire d'attraction des villes 2020 - Population municipale (historique depuis 1876)|author=INSEE |author-link=INSEE |access-date=2 April 2022}}</ref> Thus, the metropolitan area registered a population growth rate of +1.63% per year between 2009 and 2021, the third-highest growth rate of any French metropolitan area larger than 500,000 inhabitants in France, after [[Montpellier]] and [[Bordeaux]], although it was slightly lower than the growth rate registered between the 1990 and 2009 censuses. Toulouse is the fourth most populated city in France, after [[Paris]], [[Marseille]] and [[Lyon]], and the fifth most populated metropolitan area after Paris, Lyon, Marseille, and [[Lille]]. During the next census 2023 or 2024, the city of Toulouse should become the 3rd most populous city in France ahead of Lyon because its growth is stronger.

Fueled by booming aerospace and high-tech industries, the Toulouse metropolitan area's population grew by 57.3% between the 1990 and 2020 censuses (within its 2020 borders), which means +1.52% per year on average during those 30 years, compared with a growth of 15.3% for [[metropolitan France]] between 1990 and 2020, i.e. +0.48% per year. This was the second-highest population growth of any French metropolitan area larger than 500,000 inhabitants (only the [[Montpellier]] metropolitan area grew more than Toulouse between 1990 and 2019).

The Toulouse metropolitan area reached 1,513,396 inhabitants in January 2022, and stood as the 5th most populated metropolitan area in France, behind the metropolitan areas of Paris, Lyon, Marseille, and Lille, but ahead of the metropolitan area of Bordeaux, which the Toulouse metropolitan area passed in population in the 1990s. During the next census 2023, the metropolitan area of Toulouse will become the 4th most populous in France ahead of Lille because its growth is stronger.
