2050Croatia in 2050
In 2050, Croatia is projected to have a population of 3,234,159 people. Ten years before, in 2040, the projected population is still 3,488,309 — a ten-year decline of 7.3%.
The median age is projected at 50.1 years, with 22.5 children under 15 and 54.3 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
