Zimbabwe Population Pyramid (1950–2100)
Zimbabwe in 2026
As of 2026, Zimbabwe counts an estimated 17,273,580 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 2016, the population was 14,600,294; it has grown by 18.3% since. With a median age of 19.4 years, Zimbabwe has a youth dependency ratio of 69.7 and an old-age dependency ratio of 6.2 per 100 people of working age. This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
