Bahrain in 2028

In 2028, Bahrain is projected to have a population of 1,726,506 people. That would be 15.3% more than in 2018 (1,497,625).

Half of the population would be younger than 34.5 years, with 17.7% children under 15 and 4.6% 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.
