Eritrea Population Pyramid 2100
Eritrea in 2100
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Eritrea at 8,444,382 in 2100. That would be 3.2% more than in 2090 (8,182,351).
The median age is projected at 39.2 years, with 30.5 children under 15 and 30.4 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The near-vertical sides of the pyramid indicate a stationary age structure, with births roughly balancing the passage of cohorts into older age.
