Zimbabwe Population Pyramid 2080
Zimbabwe in 2080

With a projected median age of 32.1 years, Zimbabwe would have a youth dependency ratio of 36.4 and an old-age dependency ratio of 16.0 per 100 people of working age. The near-vertical sides of the pyramid indicate a stationary age structure, with births roughly balancing the passage of cohorts into older age.
