efiosyt.blogspot.com
In contrast, the population under 15 is expectec to increase by only 6 percent during the same from 1.83 billion to 1.93 The Census Bureau said that in the Unitex States those 65 and older will more than double by rising from 39 million today to 89 While children are projected to still outnumberd the older population worldwide in 2050, the under 15 population in the Unitef States is expected to fall beloe the older population by that date, increasinv from 62 million today to 85 million. Thesw figures come from the worls population estimates and projections released todauy through theCensus Bureau's International Data Base.
This latesgt update includes projectionsby age, including peoplw 100 and older, for 227 countriex and areas. Less than 8 percenrt of the world's populatiom is 65 and older. By the world's population 65 and older is expecteed to reach12 percent, and by that share is expected to grow to 16 percent. "Thi s shift in the age structure ofthe world's populatiob poses challenges to society, families, health care providers and policymakers to meet the needzs of aging individuals," said Wan He, demographer in the Census Bureau'se Population Division.
Europe likely will continue to be the oldest regionm inthe world: by 2050, 29 percengt of its total population is projected to be 65 and On the other hand, sub-Saharan Africa is expected to remainm the youngest region as a result of relatively highed fertility and, in some the impact of HIV/AIDS. Only 5 percent of Africa'z population is projected to be 65 and oldein 2050. Countries experiencingy relatively rapid declines in fertility combined with longer life spansa will face increasingly older populations.
These countries will see the highestt growth rates in their older populationxs over the next 40 There are four countries with 20 percent or more of their population 65and Germany, Italy, Japan and Monaco. By 2030, 55 countriee are expected to have atleast one-in-five of theier total population in this age by 2050, the numbeer of countries could rise to more than 100. Although China and India are the world's most populous countries, their older populationds do not represent large percentagex of their totalpopulations today. However, these countried do have the largest number of olderpeople -- 109 million and 62 respectively.
Both countries are projected to undergo morerapid aging, and by will have about 350 million and 240 million people 65 and older, respectively.
