World in 2049

By 2049, the population of the World is expected to reach 9,622,824,029. That would be 5.5% more than in 2039 (9,120,928,380).

With a projected median age of 36.9 years, the World would have a youth dependency ratio of 32.3 and an old-age dependency ratio of 25.4 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
