Europe & Central Asia · ATWhere is Austria?
Austria is grouped in the World Bank's Europe & Central Asia region. Its listed capital is Vienna. The profile's representative coordinates are 48.22° N, 16.38° E; they are orientation points, not geometric centroids or boundary claims.
How large is Austria?
EqualAtlas calculates a consistent spherical area from the same Natural Earth boundary geometry used for the map. For Austria, that mapped area is approximately 83,901 square kilometres, ranking #115 among 238 mapped country and territory profiles. It may differ slightly from figures published by national statistical offices because coastlines, inland water and territorial definitions vary by dataset.
People and place
Austria had a World Bank population value of 9,208,163 in 2025. Using the displayed mapped area, that is about 109.8 people per square kilometre. Area and population answer different questions, so EqualAtlas keeps their reference methods visible rather than combining them into an unexplained ranking.
For wider context, the latest imported World Bank GDP value is $579.5B for 2025, ranking #28 among 185 profiles with data. This current-dollar measure should not be read as a cost-of-living or household-income comparison.
The latest imported life expectancy at birth value is 82 years for 2024, ranking #36 among 215 profiles with data. It is a period estimate based on prevailing mortality rates, not a prediction for an individual person.
