South Africa in 2050

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of South Africa at 79,177,328 in 2050. That would be 6.9% more than in 2040 (74,035,623). Half of the population would be younger than 33.4 years, with 21.5% children under 15 and 11.3% aged 65 or older. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.

Share of the population by age group, 1950–2100
