Asia Population Pyramid 2048
Asia in 2048
By 2048, the population of Asia is expected to reach 5,268,643,448. That would be 2.5% more than in 2038 (5,140,673,146).
The median age is projected at 40.3 years, with 27.0 children under 15 and 27.9 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
