Graph of the week: Ageing report – Population projections in EU Member States

The EU population is projected to increase in size slightly by 2060, but with a much older age profile than today. The EU population is projected to increase by 5% from 507 million in 2013 to a peak of 526 million in 2050, before declining slowly to 523 million in 2060.

However, this increase would not occur without the projected inward migration flows to the EU. Wide differences in population change across Member States are expected.
