••• European Countries With Over 20% Of The Population Aged 65+
•••The proportion of people aged 15 to 29 has decreased from 18.1% in 2011 to 16.3% in 2021. This trend is expected to continue and to be even more pronounced in rural areas. By 2050, the proportion of people aged over 65 will be around 30%, compared to around 20% today.
•••How population aging affects the economy in four graphs
•••Retirements, pressure on the labor market, health and dependency-related expenses: the effects of population aging are visible to the naked eye. A challenge for the state budget and for companies.
•••Europe has never lived up to its nickname of the "Old Continent" so well. Due to the combined effect of increasing life expectancy and falling birth rates, the European Union has one of the most ageing demographics in the world: 21% of its population is over 65.
•••This indicator, already 3 points higher than that posted in 2011, could still climb to 30% by 2050, according to Eurostat projections.
"Although Europe has higher immigration than emigration, the progressive decline of the European population and its workforce will continue", warns the European
•••Commission in a recent working document on the impact of demographic change.
