United States of America Population Pyramid 2060
United States of America in 2060
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of the United States of America at 388,918,395 in 2060. Compared with 2050, when the projection stands at 380,846,909, that represents growth of 2.1% over ten years.
With a projected median age of 44.1 years, the United States of America would have a youth dependency ratio of 25.2 and an old-age dependency ratio of 40.8 per 100 people of working age. This is a constrictive pyramid — its base is narrower than its middle, the signature of sustained low birth rates and population ageing.
The bulge of cohorts born between 1946 and 1964 — the post-war baby boom — is the defining feature of the United States pyramid, visible as it moves up the age scale over the decades.
