Mauritius Population Pyramid 2082
Mauritius in 2082
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Mauritius at 760,900 in 2082. That would be 12.9% less than in 2072 (873,283).
With a projected median age of 56.7 years, Mauritius would have a youth dependency ratio of 20.0 and an old-age dependency ratio of 77.8 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
