2015Southern Europe in 2015
The population of Southern Europe in 2015 was 153,260,623. A decade earlier, in 2005, the population was 150,076,894; it has grown by 2.1% since.
Half of the population was younger than 43.6 years; 14.6% were children under 15 and 19.9% were 65 or older. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
