{{Short description|None}}This is a list of islands in the world ordered by population, which includes all
islands with more than 100,000 people. For comparison,
continental
landmasses are also shown, in italics. The population of the world’s islands is over 730 million, approximately 9% of the world’s total population. Of those, only
Java (
Indonesia) and
Honshu (
Japan) have populations over 1% of the global population.
Islands ordered by population
Due to the uncertainty of what exactly constitutes a geographic island, as opposed to an administrative region, please see comments about what is included in the figures: the statistics for some “islands” include other nearby islands.{{World’s most populous islands location map}}
