The line graph illustrates the changes in the population aged 65 and over in the USA, Japan, and Sweden between 1940 and 2040.
Overall, the amount of older populations in selected countries significantly grew, but in the USA and Sweden, the growth was gradual, apart from Japan, where a peak was reached in 2020.
The USA and Sweden had a similar tendency of growth, both countries reached a peak in 1960 and 1980, but between 2000 and 2020 the situation was substantially opposite. Sweden continued its rise, while the USA had a steady period of stability.
Japan had a fall in its population between 1940 and 1960, the proportion of the older population accounted for 5%, but from 1980 started the significant rise and Japan increased the level of proportion from 5% up to 30% in 40 years.
