Swaziland in 2060

By 2060, the population of Swaziland is expected to reach 1,539,565. Ten years before, in 2050, the projected population is 1,505,331 — 2.3% lower.

Half of the population would be younger than 33.2 years, with 22.2% children under 15 and 10.1% 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.
