Population in the future / county level (mid-range results) - Population 20 to under 65 years 2040, % change compared to 2020

Thematic maps of the population. Share of population by age group in the total population in 2020, 2040, 2070. % change in population by age group in 2020 compared to 2040 and 2070. Youth and old-age dependency ratios 2020, 2040 and 2070. The youth quotient indicates the number of persons under the age of 20 per 100 persons between the ages of 20 and 65, the old-age quotient indicates the number of persons aged 65 and older per 100 persons between the ages of 20 and 65. The data come from the sixth regionalized population projection (medium variant). This projection is based on the results of the population update as at 31. December 2020. The birth rate will rise from 1.57 today to 1.6 children per woman by 2025. It will remain constant until 2070. Life expectancy will increase from 83 to 85 years for women today and from 79 to 82 years for men by 2040. By 2070, a further increase is assumed for women to 87 years and for men to 85 years. The projection assumes that the net migration will increase from 17,300 to +20,000 persons per year by 2025. It will remain at this level until 2030. The balance will then fall to +15,000 persons by 2040. This corresponds roughly to the long-term net migration recorded by Rhineland-Palatinate on average per year between 1951 and 2020. From 2040 onwards, the balance will remain constant until the end of the forecasting period. :Population 20 to under 65 years 2040, % change compared to 2020.
