China in 2018

The population of China in 2018 was 1,419,008,956. A decade earlier, in 2008, the population was 1,333,821,016; it has grown by 6.4% since. With a median age of 37.7 years, China had a youth dependency ratio of 26.1 and an old-age dependency ratio of 16.4 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
