Zimbabwe Population Pyramid 2060
Zimbabwe in 2060
By 2060, the population of Zimbabwe is expected to reach 29,129,003. Compared with 2050, when the projection stands at 25,866,384, that represents growth of 12.6% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 27.0 years, with 28.5% children under 15 and 5.9% aged 65 or older. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
