Japan in 2016

In 2016, Japan had a total population of 127,159,951 people. A decade earlier, in 2006, the population was still 127,997,248; it has declined by 0.7% since. The median age was 47.3 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 21.3 children under 15 and 46.0 people aged 65 or over. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
