Southern Europe in 2031

In 2031, Southern Europe is projected to have a population of 147,774,776 people. Ten years before, in 2021, the projected population is still 152,274,700 — a ten-year decline of 3.0%.

Half of the population would be younger than 49.5 years, with 11.5% children under 15 and 26.5% aged 65 or older. The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
