It is noted that 53.7% of the population of Russia are women.
In addition, an almost equal number of female and male populations are observed in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Kamchatka Territory, the Chechen Republic and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug.
However, in most regions of Russia there are on average 6-10% more women than men.
The Federal State Statistics Service said that in Russia more boys are born than girls. Despite this fact, after 35 years there has been a tendency for the female population to prevail over the male one.
Earlier, Rosstat said that in 2019, 12% of Russians led a healthy lifestyle. The largest number of followers of healthy lifestyle was recorded in Ingushetia, Crimea and Adygea.
