Panama Population Pyramid 2034
Panama in 2034
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Panama at 5,026,496 in 2034. Compared with 2024, when the projection stands at 4,515,577, that represents growth of 11.3% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 34.2 years, with 21.3% children under 15 and 12.9% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
