World in 2040

In 2040, the World is projected to have a population of 9,177,190,202 people. Ten years before, in 2030, the projected population is 8,569,124,911 — 7.1% lower. With a projected median age of 35.0 years, the World would have a youth dependency ratio of 32.9 and an old-age dependency ratio of 22.2 per 100 people of working age. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.
