Belarus Population Pyramid 2098
Belarus in 2098
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Belarus at 4,452,024 in 2098. Ten years before, in 2088, the projected population is still 4,961,454 — a ten-year decline of 10.3%.
With a projected median age of 54.2 years, Belarus would have a youth dependency ratio of 19.8 and an old-age dependency ratio of 67.3 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.
