The pie charts provide data on the age distribution of the populations in Oman and Spain in 2005, with projections for 2055.
Overall, Oman’s middle-aged population (aged 15 to 59) and elderly residents are expected to grow by 2055, whereas the youngest age group is projected to decline. Conversely, a downward trend is predicted for Spain’s middle-aged and youngest populations, while the proportion of people aged over 60 is forecast to rise significantly.
In detail, the percentage of middle-aged people in Oman is predicted to increase from 48% in 2005 to 57% in 2055. Similarly, the proportion of the oldest individuals (over 60 years old) is forecast to rise slightly by 2055. In contrast, the percentage of youngsters is estimated to go down over the given period.
Turning to Spain, the figure for middle-aged individuals is predicted to decline from 62% in 2005 to 46% by 2055. Likewise, the youngest group of children is projected to drop slightly. However, the proportion of the population aged over 60 is anticipated to grow substantially by 2055.
