The line graph below shows population projections (millions) for German over 65 from 2020 to 2050.
The given line graph illustrates population projections for German inhabitants over 65 and above between 2020 and 2050.
As can be seen from the chart, there is a notable contrast between the three age ranges. The people over 65 are projected to be the most substantial over the decades while citizens over 80 accounted for the least amongst the given figures.
In 2020, the proportions of Germans citizens older than 65 stood at approximately 17 million and are forecasted to increase steadily to around 24 million in 2035 and experience a slight decrease to 23 million by 2050. Similarly, the number of people aged 65-79 is expected to have a slight rise from around 13 to roughly 16 million by 2035. However, the figure is likely to drop to 14 million by 2050, 11 million fewer than civilians above 65.
Furthermore, people older than the age of 80 originally stood at about 6 million. This number is expected to go through a consistent growth with 8 million and 10 million people by 2035 and 2050 respectively.v
