Northern Europe Population Pyramid 1988
Northern Europe in 1988
In 1988, Northern Europe had a total population of 91,661,167 people. A decade earlier, in 1978, the population was 89,489,370; it has grown by 2.4% since.
Half of the population was younger than 35.5 years; 19.4% were children under 15 and 15.2% were 65 or older. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
