Bahamas Population Pyramid 2040
Bahamas in 2040
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of the Bahamas at 420,346 in 2040. Compared with 2030, when the projection stands at 410,267, that represents growth of 2.5% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 41.3 years, with 15.2% children under 15 and 18.5% aged 65 or older. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
