As of 2002, Cyprus counted 981,440 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 1992, the population was 810,340; it has grown by 21.1% since.
The median age was 32.0 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 31.1 children under 15 and 14.7 people aged 65 or over. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
