Northern Europe in 2050

With a projected median age of 44.6 years, Northern Europe would have a youth dependency ratio of 24.6 and an old-age dependency ratio of 42.3 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.
