Djibouti Population Pyramid 2030
Djibouti in 2030
By 2030, the population of Djibouti is expected to reach 1,262,678. Compared with 2020, when the projection stands at 1,105,189, that represents growth of 14.3% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 27.4 years, with 27.3% children under 15 and 5.7% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
