The percentage of elderly people, aged 65 and over, from the year 1940 and projection till 2040 in three countries- Japan, Sweden, and United States of America is illustrated in the given diagram.
Based on the chart it can be seen that Japan had the lowest percentage of people who aged 65 and over in the year of 1940. It is surprising that Japan estimates that they will have the highest percentage of these elderly people in 2040.
By looking at the detail, in 1940, Japan had only 5% elderly people compared with the USA, where 10% of total population was over 64 years old. While the proportion of elderly progressively increased in Sweden and the USA, the number of elders in Japan decreased till the end of the 80s. After 1980, the proportion of the elderly population in Japan dramatically increased and it is estimated to extremely raise after 2020. In 2040, Japan will be the land of the highest percentage of elders.
Looking at the elderly people's percentages in two other countries- Sweden and the USA, it can be stated that, the proportion steadily increased and it is predicted that this percentage will keep on increasing. In 1940 the percentages of elderly in Sweden and the USA were about 6% and 9% respectively and it is estimated that these will reach to about one-fourth of the total population.
