South America in 2060

By 2060, the population of South America is expected to reach 462,901,305. That would be 1.2% less than in 2050 (468,674,488). With a projected median age of 45.8 years, South America would have a youth dependency ratio of 23.8 and an old-age dependency ratio of 40.1 per 100 people of working age. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
