With a projected median age of 44.1 years, Belize would have a youth dependency ratio of 24.6 and an old-age dependency ratio of 33.8 per 100 people of working age. The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
