Eastern Asia Population Pyramid 2039
Eastern Asia in 2039
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Eastern Asia at 1,571,175,571 in 2039. Compared with 2029, when the projection stands at 1,635,046,461, that represents a decline of 3.9% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 49.2 years, with 9.5% children under 15 and 26.9% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
