According to the 2021 census, it has a population of 4,408. The town has been inhabited for thousands of years, as it is one of the few places in all the Lower Danube that can be easily [[ford (river)|forded]] and thus be an easy link between the [[Balkans]] and the steppes of Southern [[Ukraine]] and [[Russia]], north of the [[Black Sea]]. The Danube was for a long time the border between the Romans, later Byzantines and the "barbarian" migrating tribes in the north, making Isaccea a [[border town]], conquered and held by dozens of different peoples.
