As of 2019, China counted 1,423,520,358 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 2009, the population was 1,342,522,716; it has grown by 6.0% since. With a median age of 38.1 years, China had a youth dependency ratio of 26.1 and an old-age dependency ratio of 17.3 per 100 people of working age. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.
