Myanmar Population Pyramid 2039
Myanmar in 2039
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Myanmar at 58,052,176 in 2039. Ten years before, in 2029, the projected population is 56,085,140 — 3.5% lower.
Half of the population would be younger than 35.0 years, with 20.8% children under 15 and 10.8% aged 65 or older. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.
