Population

Since the fall of the Soviet Union, Tajiks have become the second largest ethnic group in Uzbekistan. Tajiks form the majority in the cities of Bukhara and Samarkand. Additionally, 20.4% of the population of Tajiks in Uzbekistan reside in the Surxondaryo Region, and 19.9% of Tajiks live in the Samarqand Region.

Number of Tajiks in Uzbekistan
Year Number Percent Source
1926 350,670 7.4%
1939 317,560 5.1%
1959 311,375 3.8%
1970 457,356 3.8%
1979 594,627 3.9%
1989 933,560 4.7%
2017 1,544,700 4.8%
2021 1,657,336 4.8%

The increase in the percentage of Tajiks from 3.9% in 1979 to 4.7% in 1989 can be partly attributed to a change in census instructions. The 1989 census allowed respondents to report their nationality based on ethnic self-identification rather than passport information for the first time.
