Africa Population Pyramid 2060
Africa in 2060
By 2060, the population of Africa is expected to reach 2,821,497,089. Ten years before, in 2050, the projected population is 2,466,647,618 — 14.4% lower.
With a projected median age of 27.7 years, Africa would have a youth dependency ratio of 43.6 and an old-age dependency ratio of 11.0 per 100 people of working age. The near-vertical sides of the pyramid indicate a stationary age structure, with births roughly balancing the passage of cohorts into older age.
