There are two main centres of population within the municipal boundaries. Roburent itself, which stands at 788 metres (2,585 ft) above sea-level, is the capoluogo and site of the municipal administration; it had 183 inhabitants at the time of the 2001 census. San Giacomo at 1,011 metres (3,317 ft) had a resident population of 247. Istat identified Pra (1014 m, pop. 12) as the third well-defined ‘populated centre’ (centro abitato). There were also eight minor settlements classified as ‘populated nuclei’ (nuclei abitati): Cardini (1153 m, pop. 35), Costacalda (1135 m, pop. 6), Mondini (920 m, pop. 14), Montà (780 m, pop. 12), Mottoni (964 m, pop. 2), Nasi (850 m, pop. 9), Patelle (1114 m, pop. 7), and Zitella (800 m, pop. 8).

Since the First World War there has been a steady decline in the population of the comune, from a maximum of 1919 in 1911 to 552 at the start of 2009. The following graph is based on figures from the official censuses which have taken place since the unification of Italy.
