Russian Federation in 2000

In 2000, the Russian Federation had a total population of 146,717,783 people. A decade earlier, in 1990, the population was still 148,979,540; it has declined by 1.5% since.

The median age was 36.6 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 25.9 children under 15 and 17.7 people aged 65 or over. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
