In the 2009 census the population of the commune was 4,796.[1] The village of Kalifabougou is 30 km northwest of Kati, the chef-lieu of the cercle.
Kalifabougou was the center of a Kafo, a vassal to Bamako, in the 18th and 19th centuries. The kafo-tigi was elected from among the local Konate family, but had to be approved in Bamako, and was obliged to send troops when war was declared.[3]
