Eastern Asia in 2044

In 2044, Eastern Asia is projected to have a population of 1,529,265,884 people. Ten years before, in 2034, the projected population is still 1,606,593,146 — a ten-year decline of 4.8%.

Half of the population would be younger than 51.3 years, with 9.8% children under 15 and 28.9% aged 65 or older. The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
