Egypt Population Pyramid 2085
Egypt in 2085
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Egypt at 197,258,869 in 2085. Compared with 2075, when the projection stands at 190,502,723, that represents growth of 3.5% over ten years.
With a projected median age of 39.9 years, Egypt would have a youth dependency ratio of 29.3 and an old-age dependency ratio of 30.2 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
