Slovakia in 2027

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Slovakia at 5,441,445 in 2027. The projection for 2017 is nearly the same: 5,435,700.

With a projected median age of 44.2 years, Slovakia would have a youth dependency ratio of 23.3 and an old-age dependency ratio of 30.7 per 100 people of working age. The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
