Saint Lucia in 2028

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Saint Lucia at 181,003 in 2028. Ten years before, in 2018, the projected population is 177,017 — 2.3% lower.

Half of the population would be younger than 37.1 years, with 16.8% children under 15 and 11.2% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
