Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2043

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Bosnia and Herzegovina at 2,657,000 in 2043. That would be 9.6% less than in 2033 (2,937,842).

The median age is projected at 52.0 years, with 20.7 children under 15 and 53.5 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
