Eastern Europe in 2028

In 2028, Eastern Europe is projected to have a population of 281,456,152 people. That would be 4.6% less than in 2018 (294,903,107).

Half of the population would be younger than 43.5 years, with 14.9% children under 15 and 20.1% 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.
