Barbados Population Pyramid 2060
Barbados in 2060
In 2060, Barbados is projected to have a population of 250,870 people. Ten years before, in 2050, the projected population is still 264,215 — a ten-year decline of 5.1%.
With a projected median age of 46.8 years, Barbados would have a youth dependency ratio of 24.0 and an old-age dependency ratio of 43.6 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.
