Ecuador Population Pyramid 2029
Ecuador in 2029
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Ecuador at 18,914,096 in 2029. Ten years before, in 2019, the projected population is 17,340,022 — 9.1% lower.
The median age is projected at 32.0 years, with 32.1 children under 15 and 14.1 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
