Asia Population Pyramid 2027
Asia in 2027
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Asia at 4,890,963,064 in 2027. Ten years before, in 2017, the projected population is 4,572,478,814 — 7.0% lower.
With a projected median age of 34.2 years, Asia would have a youth dependency ratio of 31.4 and an old-age dependency ratio of 15.9 per 100 people of working age. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.
