Caribbean in 2049

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of the Caribbean at 46,041,309 in 2049. The projection for 2039 is nearly the same: 46,033,772.

The median age is projected at 39.9 years, with 27.8 children under 15 and 28.1 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
