Austria Population Pyramid 2055
Austria in 2055
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Austria at 8,570,634 in 2055. Compared with 2045, when the projection stands at 8,844,730, that represents a decline of 3.1% over ten years.
With a projected median age of 49.8 years, Austria would have a youth dependency ratio of 22.6 and an old-age dependency ratio of 57.0 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
