Serbia in 2049

The median age is projected at 49.3 years, with 22.5 children under 15 and 49.5 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
