Summary

United Kingdom in 2063

The median age is projected at 46.2 years, with 24.0 children under 15 and 45.1 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
