Africa Population Pyramid 2099
Africa in 2099
In 2099, Africa is projected to have a population of 3,799,971,486 people. Ten years before, in 2089, the projected population is 3,629,227,530 — 4.7% lower.
With a projected median age of 35.9 years, Africa would have a youth dependency ratio of 32.2 and an old-age dependency ratio of 22.5 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
