2082South America in 2082
By 2082, the population of South America is expected to reach 423,742,084. Compared with 2072, when the projection stands at 445,049,096, that represents a decline of 4.8% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 49.5 years, with 13.3% children under 15 and 30.9% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
