Demography of Europe – 2026 edition #Interactive

Demography of Europe – 2026 edition interactive publication is out today, bringing you the latest key data on the EU population in one place.

In 2025, the EU was home to 451 million people, a million more than in 2024. Did you know that 6% of the population was aged 80 or over? And that the median age rose from 39.6 years in 2005 to 44.9 years in 2025? Or that 3% of the EU population, some 14 million people, lived in different EU country from the one they were citizens of?

With Demography of Europe, you can explore these topics and more. The main findings are presented alongside interactive visualisations, offering the possibility to compare countries and explore developments over time. You can easily access and download all datasets for further analysis and share your favourite visualisations on social media. 

Demography of Europe is organised in 4 thematic sections: population structure, population change, population diversity and marital status, providing a comprehensive overview of demographic developments across the EU.
