Central America in 2085

In 2085, Central America is projected to have a population of 210,695,272 people. Ten years before, in 2075, the projected population is still 216,914,272 — a ten-year decline of 2.9%.

The median age is projected at 47.2 years, with 24.8 children under 15 and 48.6 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.
