Republic of Moldova Population Pyramid 2033
Republic of Moldova in 2033
By 2033, the population of the Republic of Moldova is expected to reach 2,759,083. Ten years before, in 2023, the projected population is still 3,067,070 — a ten-year decline of 10.0%.
Half of the population would be younger than 42.7 years, with 15.9% children under 15 and 19.1% aged 65 or older. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
