[3] According to the census of 2021, the municipal unit has a population of 10,144 people while the town itself has 6,128 inhabitants, third largest in Chalkidiki.

Nea Kallikrateia was established after the refugee crisis in 1922, mainly by the residents who came from Kallikrateia (today Mimarsinan, a neighbourhood of Büyükçekmece) in Eastern Thrace and set up in the area, where the metochi of the Xenophontos Monastery of Mount Athos existed and it was called “Stomion”.

Many testimonies report that it was inhabited by the prehistoric years; however, they are not confirmed.
