My uncle who works for the government told me according to government estimates the current population of Hargeisa is 1.3 million. This was in 2015. And he told me that they didn't include foreigners qurbajoog, Oromo, refugee...
So I would say Hargeisa has at least 2 million inhabitants.

Interesting Hargeisa is getting massive now look at new Hargeisa it has reached halaaya.

Not only Hargeisa but burco borama erigabo lascanood iyo berbera are growing rapidly. We need a government agency collecting national statics.

Also Considering average Somali families have 5-6 kids

It's good to have big country by land and a small population. There would be more resources to go around. Like Australia.

Somaliland were less than 3million in 2014 when the population estimates were done. They are approximately 3 million when you include the areas that overlap between PL and SL. PL and SL were both fronting when they claimed they were both 3.5 million lol. Half of the Somalia population doesn't even live in the North. The majority of Somalis population is located in the territories Koonfur (south of Puntland).

People are pulling figures right out of their ass, the truth is no one knows, could be 2 million or 5 million or lower or higher.

On thing is for certain the Bantu population in the south is grossly under estimated, the numbers are far higher then the 15% reported

My estimate come from the notion that somaliland population is lesser than eritrea population but its land and area size is larger than eritrea.

And don't forget somaliland was over one third of the somali republic population during afweyne time.
