Hungary in 2004

As of 2004, Hungary counted 10,085,791 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 1994, the population was still 10,339,937; it has declined by 2.5% since.

With a median age of 38.9 years, Hungary had a youth dependency ratio of 22.9 and an old-age dependency ratio of 22.3 per 100 people of working age. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
