At the 2006 National Census, its population was 22,289 in 6,615 households.[4] The following census in 2011 counted 25,376 people in 8,196 households.[5] At the latest census in 2016, the district had 29,860 inhabitants in 10,138 households.[2]

During the Qajar era and early 20th century Lavasanat was the transit way between northern slopes of Elburz and Tehran with Great Lavasan (Lavasan Bozorg), Ammameh , Afjeh and Najarkala known as the most famous towns of Lavasanat.

The natives of the Lavasanat district are of Caspian origin.[3] The local dialect or "vernacular" spoken by its natives is a mix of Persian and Caspian.[3] In the village of Ira (as well as Veskara), this vernacular approaches Mazandarani.[3]
