Austria Population Pyramid 2050
Austria in 2050
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Austria at 8,724,332 in 2050. Ten years before, in 2040, the projected population is still 8,934,061 — a ten-year decline of 2.3%.
With a projected median age of 50.2 years, Austria would have a youth dependency ratio of 21.5 and an old-age dependency ratio of 54.1 per 100 people of working age. The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
