The canon demographics of Eclipse Phase are at times muddled and inconsistent. This post will attempt to collect and summarize information in order to give a clearer picture.
[list]
[*]According to EP p. 38 second column (third printing), the Solar System had a population of "approximately eight billion, with all but five million of these people living on Earth". The Fall is described as wiping out "almost ninety-five percent", for an AF10 population of "slightly less than half a billion".
[*]EP p. 36 second column (third printing) says that "fewer than one in every sixteen survived", or less than 6.25%.
[*]EP p. 91 "Habitats" (third printing) says over a billion people lived full time in Earth Orbit prior to the Fall.
[*]"Hundreds of millions of people must make do with very basic Splicers, Worker Pods, Cases, or Synths, while a few million are wealthy enough to have custom-designed morphs created for them, [...]" EP p. 91
[*]EP p. 65 (third printing) says "more than four hundred million refugees were uploaded[...]". It further says that half of these easily regained morphs after the Fall (over 200 million). "...another thirty percent of the refugees managed to regain bodies (usually cheap synthmorphs). These indentured servants[...]" (over 120 million, at least 60 million of which are cheap synths). "Slightly more than twenty percent of the original infomorph refugees remain infomorphs," (over 80 million) "the Planetary Consortium has been responsible for the employment of almost half of all remaining infomorph refugees." (about 40 million).
[*]EP p. 91 "Population", "reclaimer estimates guess between 20,000 and 100,000 free transhumans remain [on Earth]."
[*]EP p. 93 "Mars": "...Mars, with a population of 200 million...".
[*] One sixth of all transhumans live in synths (over 83 million).
[*] SW p. 125, second column: "Twenty million people live in Martian orbit"
[*] Before the Fall, Luna had a population of 1 million.
[*] Before the Fall, Mars had a population of 4 million.
[*] RW p. 92, sidebar: "Titan’s population grew from two million to sixty million in the decade between the Fall and the present day."
[*] "more than half" of the physical refugees live on Luna
[*] Luna has a population of 40 million.
[*] RW p. 91, second column, "Titan has 60 million citizens."
[*] Saturn-minus-Titan has a population of 20 million: RW p. 68, "With a population in excess of 80 million, Saturn’s neighborhood is the second most populous area of the solar system."
[*] 80% of all Jovians have the bodies they were born with.
[*] Jack Graham said the working number for Jupiter's population was 35-40 million, and 15 million for the Jupiter Trojans.
[*] RW p. 47, "Hyoden’s population of about two million people[...]"
[*] RW p. 48, "Europa’s transhuman population of 1.5 million lives below the ice, [...]"
[*] SW p. 24, "Today, more than 5 million inhabitants live in 20 cities floating in the Venusian atmosphere. "
[*] 40% live under the New Economy (200 million).
[*] Extropia has a population of 10 million.
[*] SW p. 63, "Easily three million transhumans live [in Earth Orbit]".
[*] SW p. 88, "The total orbital population of Luna is 3.4 million".
[*] RW p. 86, second column, "Over six million people call the Twelve Commons home."
[*] RW p. 126, "Less than 100,000 people inhabit the region around Neptune, compared to the millions in the Belt,"
[/list]
From which we can get a picture of the demographics of the Solar System; about 28 million Jovians have their original bodies, and at least as many Lunars have their original bodies; at least 56 million people have their original bodies. If we assume the original colonists were loathe to part with their bodies, this number rises to 62 million. There are no more than 80 million people who escaped the Fall with their bodies intact.
At least 414 million people were infugees immediately after the Fall.
About 83 million people are sleeved in synths; at [i]least[/i] 60 million of these got them through indenture. At least 237 million infugees are in either pods or biomorphs.
There are about 40 million people currently employed under bodiless indenture contracts in the Planetary Consortium. In the Inner System about 160 million are or have been indentured.
Adding Mars's population, Luna's population, and Venus' population gives at least 245 million people living in the Inner System. If Mars Orbit is considered separate from Mars, this number rises to 265 million. This does not account for Mercury, Sol, the Vulcanoids, Earth Orbit, or the Inner Fringe.
Between Titan, Saturn, and Extropia, only 90 million of the Solar System's 200 million-ish New Economy types are accounted for.
In total, over 80 million people live as infomorphs.
There are slightly more than 7 million original colonists.
At most 20 million people who still have their original bodies live outside Luna and the Jovian Republic.
