Northern America in 2055

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Northern America at 431,358,254 in 2055. That would be 2.4% more than in 2045 (421,071,647).

The median age is projected at 43.9 years, with 25.4 children under 15 and 39.9 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
