2036Spain in 2036
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Spain at 47,049,470 in 2036. Compared with 2026, when the projection stands at 47,850,792, that represents a decline of 1.7% over ten years.
With a projected median age of 51.0 years, Spain would have a youth dependency ratio of 17.7 and an old-age dependency ratio of 47.0 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
