Where is Cayman Islands?
Cayman Islands is grouped in the World Bank's Latin America & Caribbean region. Its listed capital is George Town. The profile's representative coordinates are 19.3° N, 81.39° W; they are orientation points, not geometric centroids or boundary claims.
How large is Cayman Islands?
EqualAtlas calculates a consistent spherical area from the same Natural Earth boundary geometry used for the map. For Cayman Islands, that mapped area is approximately 303 square kilometres, ranking #204 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
Cayman Islands had a World Bank population value of 75,844 in 2025. Using the displayed mapped area, that is about 250.3 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.
Between the fixed comparison years 2000 and 2024, the imported population series changed from 39,674 to 74,457—a rise of 87.7%. This describes net population change, not its demographic causes.
For wider context, the latest imported World Bank GDP value is $7.8B for 2024, ranking #161 among 211 profiles with data. This current-dollar measure should not be read as a cost-of-living or household-income comparison.
The latest imported GDP per capita value is $104.3K for 2024, ranking #7 among 211 profiles with data. It is average economic output per person, not median household income or a direct measure of living standards.
The latest imported life expectancy at birth value is 80.5 years for 2024, ranking #49 among 215 profiles with data. It is a period estimate based on prevailing mortality rates, not a prediction for an individual person.
