Finland Population Pyramid 2049
Finland in 2049
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Finland at 5,365,645 in 2049. Ten years before, in 2039, the projected population is still 5,492,754 — a ten-year decline of 2.3%.
The median age is projected at 47.5 years, with 22.3 children under 15 and 47.7 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
