Year
2028Seychelles in 2028
In 2028, the Seychelles is projected to have a population of 138,520 people. That would be 20.4% more than in 2018 (115,040).
Half of the population would be younger than 36.3 years, with 19.3% children under 15 and 9.6% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
