This sentence seems very innacurate: "In 2021, their population was 1,880,000, or around 5% of Saudi Arabia’s 35,950,000 population."
There are three sources cited for this. The first[1] is a link to the Saudi census homepage without any information presented. The second[2] is a link to the CIA Factbook which says that 90% of the population are "Arabs", and 10% are "Afro-Asian", which likely refers to migrant workers of predominantly South Asian and African nationalities, not to Saudis with African origin. The third[3] cites an Arab News article where it says "An estimated 10 percent of the Saudi population is of African descent, living mainly in the Western Region, and particularly in Makkah". But the article has no mention of where this estimate comes from, and there's a likelihood that it's a misunderstanding of the aforementioned CIA statistic.
