At the 2006 National Census, its population was 230 in 48 households, when it was in the Central District.[4] The following census in 2011 counted 260 people in 70 households.[5] The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 233 people in 61 households.[2]

After the 2016 census, Dasht-e Zahab, Jeygaran, Posht Tang, and Sarqaleh Rural Districts were separated from the Central District in the establishment of Dasht-e Zahab District. In addition, the villages of Kuik-e Azizi Amin, Kuik-e Hasan, Kuik-e Mahmud, and Kuik-e Majid merged to form the village of Kuik, which became the capital of the new district.[6]
