Bahamas in 2027

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of the Bahamas at 406,120 in 2027. That would be 4.0% more than in 2017 (390,485).

The median age is projected at 37.1 years, with 24.1 children under 15 and 18.3 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.
