  1. Not sure about the others but for the UK it’s basically a jobs map. Manchester, Reading, London, Cambridge, Leeds etc The Shires are all older.

  2. Spain surprising, though Madrid & Catalunya were a bit more balanced with lots of immigration. And would have thought Southern Italy was older on average. East Germany just brutal though

  3. As someone who has lived their entire life in smaller towns and villages, I’ve never felt the massive draw to the city and the bigger the city, the less appealing it’s seemed.

  4. “Areas aging” like in Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, and Greece is the result of young people moving to different countries.

    Its the same with the eastern part of Germany. About 1.5 Mio people left (out of 16 Mio) during the last 30 years to get a job in the western parts. Many of the remaining people have very strong opinions against migrants… what an irony…

  5. Shows you the great success of reintegrating east-germany into the west after 1990 if still most young people have to leave.

  6. Place a foreign population % on the top of this one.

    Europe is finished.

    And with a history like yours, it’s very deserved.

    You know how we can assume it’s by nature’s own design that your people dwindle into nothingness? You are the harbingers of your own destruction.

    The rest of the world could attack you; invade your lands; butcher you by the millions.

    But we could never convince you to give away your own land, to stop giving birth to your own people… to walk to your own extinction.

    You did that.

  7. As someone who is 24 and moved to Poland from Canada I can say it’s really nice to be around other young Polish people. So many others have returned too. I wasn’t the first one to return either. My best friend moved first, me second and our third friend plans on moving early next year! It’s truly a great time to be in Poland!

  8. How come Norway and Sweden are so young? With a high life expectancy and low birth rate they should be like the other shouldn’t they, or I’m probably missing something.
