Turkmenistan Population Pyramid 2039
Turkmenistan in 2039
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Turkmenistan at 8,853,839 in 2039. That would be 10.0% more than in 2029 (8,047,434).
With a projected median age of 30.8 years, Turkmenistan would have a youth dependency ratio of 35.0 and an old-age dependency ratio of 12.8 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
