2050Senegal in 2050
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Senegal at 30,364,954 in 2050. Compared with 2040, when the projection stands at 25,797,510, that represents growth of 17.7% over ten years.
The median age is projected at 26.7 years, with 46.5 children under 15 and 9.3 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
