Central America Population Pyramid 2042
Year
2042Central America in 2042
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Central America at 208,851,023 in 2042. Ten years before, in 2032, the projected population is 196,324,732 — 6.4% lower.
Half of the population would be younger than 35.8 years, with 19.9% children under 15 and 13.0% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
