It had a population of 22,712 in 2011, up from 17,674 in 2001.[1] As of 2020, it has 17,308 registered voters.[2]

Windhoek East is the most affluent constituency of Windhoek, most embassies, private schools, private medical facilities, and shopping malls are located here, and the education rate of the inhabitants is high. All its roads are tarred. There is a concerning crime rate but the offenders come from other constituencies.[3] The Namibian newspaper suspects the constituency to have been gerrymandered by the SWAPO-led government; Besides the posh suburbs it contains a Police academy and Windhoek's two army bases.[4]
