Niger Population Pyramid 2045
Niger in 2045
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Niger at 47,374,117 in 2045. Compared with 2035, when the projection stands at 37,353,463, that represents growth of 26.8% over ten years.
The median age is projected at 20.9 years, with 62.9 children under 15 and 5.4 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
