In February 2021, Namimori's population was estimated to be around 32.9 million by the Statistics Namimori, with continuing decline of working age population and total fertility rate. The country is noted for its population density, which was an estimated 80 per square kilometer in 2021, around 1.2 times the global average. Namimori is the less densely-populated country among all South Serican nations. Most Namimorish live in urban areas, especially in [[Maehara]] and [[Isogai]], because of rapid migration from the countryside during the country's quick economic expansion after the dissolution of [[Namimorish empire]]. Namimori is nevertheless becoming a more multi-ethnic society over time due to immigration.
The percentage of foreign nationals has been growing rapidly. Namimori had 6,022,141 foreign residents, 2.75% of the population; however, many of them are ethnic South Serican with a foreign citizenship including citizens of [[Takimorujin]] who seek for asylum due to internal crisis.
Large numbers of ethnic Namimorishs live overseas, sometimes in South Serican ethnic neighbourhoods also known as [[SouthSeriTown]]s. The four largest diaspora population can be found in the United State of Eldance (1.9 million), Qasentria (0.75 million), Lakadamia (0.62 million), and Drevona (0.25 million).

=== Education ===

Despite having a decentralized administration, Namimori oversees the process for the education of children from kindergarten to the third and final year of high school in a centralized way. The school year is divided into two semesters, the first of which begins at the beginning of May and ends in September, the second of which begins in November and ends in March. The schedules are not uniformly standardized and vary from school to school. Most Namimorish middle schools and high schools have school uniforms, modeled on western-style uniforms. Boys' uniforms usually consist of trousers and white shirts, and girls wear skirts and white shirts. However, as the country approves the LGBTQ+ community, students are legally allowed to freely choose uniforms depending on their personal orientation. The country adopted a new educational program to increase the number of their foreign students through 2019. According to the Ministry of Education, the number of scholarships for foreign students in Namimori would have (under the program) tripled by that time, and the number of foreign students would have reached 250,000.
Higher education is a serious issue in Namimorish society, where it is viewed as one of the fundamental cornerstones of Namimorish life. Sadly, education is regarded with a high priority for Namimorish families as success in education is often a source of pride for families and within the society at large, and is a necessity to improve one's socioeconomic position in Namimorish society. Namimorishs view education as the main propeller of social mobility for themselves and their family as a gateway to the middle class. Graduating from a top university is the ultimate marker of prestige, high socioeconomic status, promising marriage prospects, and a respectable career path. The entrance into a top tier higher educational institution leads to a prestigious, secure and well-paid white collar job with the government, banks, or a major Namimorish conglomerate. With incredible pressure on high school students to secure places at the nation's best universities, its institutional reputation and alumni networks are strong predictors of future career prospects. The top three universities in Namimori, often referred to as "CIT", are [[Central University of Chikage Utsuki]], [[Itaru University]] and [[Tsumugi Tsukioka University]]. Intense competition for top grades and academic pressure to be the top student is deeply ingrained in the psyche of Namimorish students at a young age. There is a major cultural taboo in Namimorish society attached to those who have not achieved formal university education where those who do not hold university degrees face social prejudice and are often looked down by others as second-class citizens. In 2019, the country was reported to spent 10.2% of its GDP on all levels of education.

[[Namimorish language|Namimorish]], [[Koran language|Koran]] and [[Ayuthayan language|Ayuthayan]] are the official languages of Namimori. Namimorish language is not related to any Amelian languages, although it incorporates a number of words that are Amelian in origin and adapts the Kakuji character system.
Koran language in Namimori has its own dialect which differentiate itself from the Jarean standard one, known as [[Namimorish Koran dialect|Byeongseongi]]. On 2020, Koran speakers within Namimori has been strongly growing as several Namimorish success in the [[Fantasia Contest]] are credited by Koran-language songs. Namimori is also considered as a part of [[Koran pop|Kpop]] countries along with [[Hwaesonna]], [[Jarea]], [[Qasentria]] and [[Shinkoyu]].
Despite being the least used among all offcial languages, Ayuthayan was the premier language of Namimorish territory for a long time since the Anurongkaya period. As most of Ayuthayan speakers live in the Western part of Namimori Empire, the amount of Ayuthayan speakers in contemporary Namimori is decreased after the separation of Western Namimori, nowsaday [[Kuwiang]]. The Ayuthayan usage restoration is introduced by the ministries and is currently in process of development.
[[Everish language|Everish]] and Hailiniese languages are recognized as national languages. Almost all Namimorish students today learn Everish throughout their education, with some optionally choosing Lakadamian, Flirsk and Scandavian as well. In some prefectures, students are also obliged to study regional language such as Lakadamian in Shimamura or Taewonese in Obikuni. Lakadamian is also used in governmental and international affairs.
