Bangladesh Population Pyramid 2081
Bangladesh in 2081
In 2081, Bangladesh is projected to have a population of 223,633,232 people. Compared with 2071, when the projection stands at 226,129,890, that represents a decline of 1.1% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 46.6 years, with 14.8% children under 15 and 26.7% 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.
