  1. Portugal is exactly as I was expecting it to be.

    I wonder how much of this aging trend is something we should try to fight, and how much is a good thing, since the global population can’t keep growing for ever, and something we just have to adapt to.

  2. The current voting record in East Germany has *nothing* to do with this. Nope, move along. 😀

  3. It’s great (and rather surprising) to see that Romania, Poland and Slovakia are still better than the West even with the mass migrations that happened in the last few decades.

    Also, for Portugal, is this due to migration, fertility, mass influx from Western retirees or a combination of all factors?

  4. I wonder what the UK is? I guess Northern Ireland is probably the similar to the rest of Ireland?

  5. My brother is engaged to a German woman from the north and earlier this year I went with them to visit her family for a weekend. The amount of old people just out and about in town was a big contrast to what I’ve seen anywhere in Sweden so far. The demographics shift was obvious to the eye there.

  6. Finland is worrying. There will be abandoned villages all over the country like in Japan.

  7. Dear u/Porodicnostablo. Would you be kind ask the author to show Kosovo also? As you know, it is independent and does not belong to anyone else. Thanks!

  8. Is it my screen or is there anyone else who can barely make out anything on this map other than yellow turkey?

  9. Brussels somehow being a lot younger than the rest of Belgium.

  10. Give it 10 years and many parts of Slovakia will be purple. Biggest gen currently is combination of younger boomers and older gen X. Fortunately second biggest Gen is still Gen Y(people mainly in 30’s nowadays), aka kids of the biggest gen lol.

  11. What in the world happened to the old folks in turkey?

  12. So Europe take skilled workers or system will be collapse especially Germany chance the system

  13. Can we bring the UK into these stats? Why tf is Turkey in this and we’re not

  14. France is actually looking good, the populated areas are light pink.

    Color scheme is trash, having 18-24% of over 60yo people seems ok, it means people live long.

  15. This is a global problem for each developed country tho.

    I am still thinking about how much work force will China lose.
