Western Europe in 2041

By 2041, the population of Western Europe is expected to reach 198,358,656. Ten years before, in 2031, the projected population is still 199,415,438 — a ten-year decline of 0.5%.

The median age is projected at 46.9 years, with 23.4 children under 15 and 48.1 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
