United Arab Emirates in 2065

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of the United Arab Emirates at 18,237,403 in 2065. That would be 12.1% more than in 2055 (16,264,890).

The median age is projected at 33.9 years, with 23.3 children under 15 and 6.8 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
