Whatever the current population is at that tech level.

For example. Zombies wipe out 90% of humanity. Well we're back at locomotive and sailing ships based on the population of that era.

Some of the simpler high tech stuff or knowledge may survive ( such as knowing about sterility for surgery, electric motors, wind power ) but other stuff just can't be done.
