At the time of the 2006 National Census, Zarabad's population was 914 in 180 households, when it was a village in Zarabad-e Sharqi Rural District of the former Zarabad District of Konarak County.[4] The following census in 2011 counted 3,222 people in 711 households,[5] by which time the village had been elevated to the status of a city upon merging with the village of Jahelu.[6] The 2016 census measured the population as 4,003 people in 876 households.[7]
