South Africa in 2055

By 2055, the population of South Africa is expected to reach 81,427,426. Ten years before, in 2045, the projected population is 76,681,449 — 6.2% lower. With a projected median age of 34.1 years, South Africa would have a youth dependency ratio of 31.8 and an old-age dependency ratio of 19.1 per 100 people of working age. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.
