According to data compiled by Eurostat, the demographic composition of Switzerland indicates that the population of women slightly exceeds that of men. Specifically, the country records a ratio of 101.1 women for every 100 men. While this confirms that women are the slightly more numerous sex in the Swiss population, this disparity is notably less pronounced when compared to the gender gaps observed in several Baltic nations.
When viewed against broader European metrics, Switzerland’s ratio places it below the European Union average, which stands at 104.2 women per 100 men. Regional comparisons reveal significant variation in the balance between women and men across the Balkan area. Serbia reports the highest ratio in the region at 105.6 women per 100 men, followed by Kosovo at 103.8, Montenegro at 103.3, and Albania at 102.2.
The figures suggest that while the majority of surveyed European nations show a higher proportion of women relative to men, Switzerland maintains a comparatively tighter balance. This metric provides insight into the current demographic structure of the country when benchmarked against both the wider European Union average and specific neighboring states. The data emphasizes that the ratio of women to men is a key indicator used to compare population structures across different geopolitical regions.
