Austria Population Pyramid 2040
Austria in 2040
By 2040, the population of Austria is expected to reach 8,934,061. That would be 1.6% less than in 2030 (9,080,346).
With a projected median age of 48.8 years, Austria would have a youth dependency ratio of 20.3 and an old-age dependency ratio of 48.3 per 100 people of working age. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
