Southern Asia Population Pyramid 2047
Year
2047Southern Asia in 2047
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Southern Asia at 2,470,864,607 in 2047. Compared with 2037, when the projection stands at 2,321,927,092, that represents growth of 6.4% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 35.9 years, with 20.5% children under 15 and 12.3% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
