Serbia in 2045

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Serbia at 5,753,266 in 2045. That would be 7.6% less than in 2035 (6,226,577).

Half of the population would be younger than 49.0 years, with 13.1% children under 15 and 27.6% 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.
