French Polynesia in 2050

In 2050, French Polynesia is projected to have a population of 284,750 people. Compared with 2040, when the projection stands at 289,169, that represents a decline of 1.5% over ten years.

Half of the population would be younger than 48.5 years, with 12.9% children under 15 and 28.5% aged 65 or older. The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
