The chart gives information about the population of Japan from 1950 to 2015 and also make the prediction for 2035 and 2055. The table provide the details of number and percentage of people of Japan who are above the age of 65 in the year 1950 and 2005. It also makes prediction for 2035 and 2055.
Overall, the chart illustrates that the peak of their population comes in 2010 and it starts decreasing 2010 onwards. It is predicted that alomost 2/5 of their population will be in the category of senior citizen in 2055.
In 1950, around 84 million people were there in Japan. in subsequent years ( 1950-2010), it increased continously and reached its peak ( 127. 8 million). From 2010 onwards, a downward trend can be observed. It is predicted that, population will decrease significantly in 2035 and 2055 and it will reach to 89. 9 million which is around only 6 million extra from 1950 ( 84. 1).
However, these figures does not represent the percentage of different age group of total population. But we can get this data from the table. In 1950, only 4. 9% (4. 1 million) people were above 65 years of age and this number increases to 20% in 2005. Predictions suggest that, this number will increase in the coming years to almost 41. 0% in 2055. Although, the total population is only 6 million more than what was there in 1950, number of people above age of 65 is huge.
