Malta Population Pyramid 2099
Malta in 2099
By 2099, the population of Malta is expected to reach 362,878. That would be 8.7% less than in 2089 (397,651).
Half of the population would be younger than 56.1 years, with 10.1% children under 15 and 40.2% aged 65 or older. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
