Today, Global Population Adds Another Billion at Record Rates.
At some point around 1800, after untold millennia of human history, global population reached its first billion. The world’s population now
grows by 1 billion about every 12 years. The 20th century began with 1.6 billion and, at the end of that century, those two numbers had
simply reversed to 6.1 billion. If birth rates continue to decline in developing countries, the increase to 8 billion could take slightly longer.

Population Size, Developing Countries Remain Young and Growing.
The population “pyramid” of the developed countries clearly shows the decline in the number of young people as a result of low birth rates.
The two pyramids provide a comparable picture of the developed and developing countries in the size of their respective populations and

The Number of Working-Age Adults Available to Support an
Older Person Is Declining Globally but Still Varies Substantially
From Country to Country.
Population aging puts pressure on a society’s ability to support its elderly citizens. A commonly used indicator of this pressure is the elderly
support ratio, calculated as the number of working-age people ages 15 to 64 divided by the number of persons 65 or older. This ratio
serves as a rough indicator of the number of potential providers of support per potential elderly dependent. In 1950, there were 12 workingage people for every elderly person in the world. By 2010, this ratio had declined to 9, with the largest decline occurring in more developed
countries. But the ratios still vary substantially across countries. In 24 countries, mostly in Europe, there are fewer than 5 working-age
people for every elderly person. The ratio is lowest in Japan, Italy, and Germany—at 3. The ratio is above 25 in seven countries, principally
in sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East. By 2050, the ratio for the world is projected to decline by more than one-half—to 4, and Japan
will have the lowest ratio of only 1 working-age adult per elderly person. The elderly support ratio will be below 5 in more than half of the
world’s countries. By 2050, no country will have a ratio above 20.

As the U.S. Population Ages, Spending on Entitlement Programs
Such as Social Security and Medicare Will Rise Sharply.
The number of people age 65 or older in the United States will more than double from 40 million in 2010 to 89 million by 2050. Spending
on Social Security and Medicare is projected to increase dramatically between now and 2050 as the number of people receiving benefits
grows. The magnitude of this increased spending is illustrated by comparing the projected costs of these two programs with Gross
Domestic Product (GDP), which measures the total output of the U.S. economy. In 1970, spending on Social Security and Medicare
totaled only about 4 percent of GDP, while by 2010 this share had risen to more than 8 percent of GDP. By 2030, Medicare expenditures
are projected to exceed those
Expenditures as a Percentage of GDP
for Social Security; by 2050, total
spending on these two programs is

projected to reach almost 15 percent

of GDP. The rapid growth in Medicare

spending will be fueled by the rising

cost and use of health care services,
in addition to the increase in the

In Many Parts of the World, Rural Populations Still Lack
Adequate Sanitation.
Worldwide, 40 percent of the population, or more than 2.6 billion people, lack one of life’s basic needs: an adequate sanitation facility,
defined as one that hygienically separates sewage from human contact. There are wide regional and rural-urban disparities, and the

2010 WORLD POPULATION DATA SHEET 17
Acknowledgments, Notes, Sources, and Definitions
Acknowledgments
Sources
The author gratefully acknowledges the
valuable assistance of PRB staff members
Donna Clifton, Jennay Ghowrwal, Toshiko
Kaneda, Mary Mederios Kent, Kata Fustos,
and Will Thompson; staff of the International Programs Center of the U.S. Census
Bureau; the United Nations (UN) Population
Division; the Institut national d’etudes
démographiques (INED), Paris; and the
World Bank in the preparation of this
year’s World Population Data Sheet. This
publication is funded by the William and
Flora Hewlett Foundation, the David and
Lucile Packard Foundation, the U.S. Agency
for International Development (Cooperative
Agreement GPO-A-00-03-00004-00),
and supporters. The information in this
Data Sheet was not provided by and does
not represent the views of the United
States government or the U.S. Agency
for International Development.
The rates and figures are primarily compiled
from the following sources: official country
statistical yearbooks, bulletins, and websites;
United Nations Demographic Yearbook, 2007
of the UN Statistics Division; World Population
Prospects: The 2008 Revision of the UN
Population Division; and the International
Data Base of the International Programs
Center, U.S. Census Bureau. Other sources
include recent demographic surveys such
as the Demographic and Health Surveys,
Reproductive Health Surveys, special studies,
and direct communication with demographers
and statistical bureaus in the United States
and abroad. Specific data sources may be
obtained by contacting the author of the
2010 World Population Data Sheet. For
countries with complete registration of births
and deaths, rates are those most recently
reported. For more developed countries,
nearly all vital rates refer to 2009 or 2008.
Notes
Definitions
The Data Sheet lists all geopolitical entities
with populations of 150,000 or more and
all members of the UN. These include
sovereign states, dependencies, overseas
departments, and some territories whose
status or boundaries may be undetermined
or in dispute. More developed regions,
following the UN classification, comprise
all of Europe and North America, plus
Australia, Japan, and New Zealand. All
other regions and countries are classified
as less developed. The least developed
countries consist of 49 countries with
especially low incomes, high economic
vulnerability, and poor human development
indicators. The criteria and list of countries,
as defined by the United Nations, can be
found at www.unohrlls.org/en/ldc/.
Mid-2010 Population
Estimates are based on a recent census;
official national data; or PRB, UN, and U.S.
Census Bureau projections. The effects
of refugee movements, large numbers of
foreign workers, and population shifts due to
contemporary political events are taken into
account to the extent possible.
Sub-Saharan Africa: All countries of
Africa except the northern African countries
of Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Tunisia,
and Western Sahara.
World and Regional Totals: Regional
population totals are independently rounded
and include small countries or areas not
shown. Regional and world rates and percentages are weighted averages of countries
for which data are available; regional averages are shown when data or estimates are
available for at least three-quarters of the
region’s population.
World Population Data Sheets from different
years should not be used as a time series.
Fluctuations in values from year to year
often reflect revisions based on new data or
estimates rather than actual changes in levels.
Additional information on likely trends and
consistent time series can be obtained from
PRB, and are also available in UN and U.S.
Census Bureau publications and websites.

Birth and Death Rate
The annual number of births and deaths
per 1,000 total population. These rates are
often referred to as “crude rates” since they
do not take a population’s age structure into
account. Thus, crude death rates in more
developed countries, with a relatively large
proportion of high-mortality older population,
are often higher than those in less developed
countries with lower life expectancy.
Rate of Natural Increase (RNI)
The birth rate minus the death rate, implying the
annual rate of population growth without regard
for migration. Expressed as a percentage.
Net Migration
The estimated rate of net immigration
(immigration minus emigration) per 1,000
population for a recent year based upon
the official national rate or derived as a
residual from estimated birth, death, and
population growth rates. Migration rates
can vary substantially from year to year for
any particular country, as can the definition
of an immigrant.
2050 Population as a Multiple of 2010
Projected populations based upon reasonable assumptions on the future course of
fertility, mortality, and migration. Projections
are based upon official country projections,
series issued by the UN or the U.S. Census
Bureau, or PRB projections.
Infant Mortality Rate
The annual number of deaths of infants under
age 1 per 1,000 live births. Rates shown with
decimals indicate national statistics reported
as completely registered, while those without
are estimates from the sources cited above.
Rates shown in italics are based upon fewer
than 50 annual infant deaths and, as a result,
are subject to considerable yearly variability.
Total Fertility Rate (TFR)
The average number of children a woman
would have assuming that current
age-specific birth rates remain constant
throughout her childbearing years (usually
considered to be ages 15-49).
Population Under Age 15/Age 65+
The percentage of the total population in
these ages, which are often considered the
“dependent ages.”
Elderly Support Ratio
The number of working-age people ages
15-64 divided by the number of persons 65
or older, indicating levels of potential societal
support available for the elderly.
Life Expectancy at Birth
The average number of years a newborn
infant can expect to live under current
mortality levels.
Percent Urban
Percentage of the total population living
in areas termed “urban” by that country.
Countries define urban in many different
ways, from population centers of 100 or
more dwellings to only the population living
in national and provincial capitals.
Prevalence of HIV/AIDS
The estimated percentage of adults ages
15-49 living with HIV/AIDS. Most figures are
from UNAIDS’ 2008 Report on the Global
AIDS Epidemic. Figures are updated with
data from Demographic and Health Surveys
where available. Some regional averages
were calculated by PRB.
Contraceptive Use
The percentage of currently married or
“in-union” women of reproductive age
who are using any form of contraception.
“Modern” methods include clinic and supply
methods such as the pill, IUD, condom, and
sterilization. Data are from the most recently
available national-level surveys, such as
Demographic and Health Surveys, Reproductive Health Surveys, Multiple Indicator
Cluster Surveys, regional survey programs,
national surveys, and the UN Population
Division World Contraceptive Use 2009.
For more developed countries, data refer to
some point in the 1990s and early 2000s;
and for less developed countries, from 1995.
Data prior to 2004 are shown in italics.
GNI PPP per Capita, 2008 (US$)
GNI PPP per capita is gross national income
in purchasing power parity (PPP) divided by
midyear population. GNI PPP refers to gross
national income converted to “international”
dollars using a purchasing power parity conversion factor. International dollars indicate
the amount of goods and services one could
buy in the United States with a given amount
of money. Data are from the World Bank.
Figures in italics are for 2006 or 2007.
Mobile Phone Subscribers per 100
Inhabitants
Data are from the International Telecommunications Union, Measuring the Information
Society 2010 (www.itu.int).
Percent of Population Who Use
Improved Sanitation
For monitoring Millennium Development
Goals, an improved sanitation facility is
defined as one that hygienically separates
sewage from human contact. Data are from
WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme
for Water Supply and Sanitation (www.
wssinfo.org/datamining/tables.html).

2010 WORLD POPULATION DATA SHEET 18
The Population Reference Bureau informs people around the
world about population, health, and the environment, and empowers them to
use that information to advance the well-being of current and future generations.
inform
empower
advance
PRB informs people around the world about
issues related to population, health, and
the environment. To do this, we transform
technical data and research into accurate,
easy-to-understand information.
PRB empowers people—researchers, journalists, policymakers, and educators—to use
information about population, health, and the
environment to encourage action. Frequently,
people have information but lack the tools
needed to communicate effectively to decisionmakers. PRB builds coalitions and conducts
trainings to share techniques to inform policy.
PRB works to advance the well-being of current
and future generations. Toward that end, we
analyze data and research, disseminate information, and empower people to use that information to inform policymaking. While the numbers
of publications created or workshops conducted
are one way to measure PRB’s work, the creation of evidence-based policies, increased
demand for health services, and active coalitions
are better gauges of progress toward positive
social change.
Innovative Tools. DataFinder is a PRB
searchable database of 133 population, health,
and environment variables for all countries of the
world. A separate U.S. database includes 579
social, economic, and demographic variables
for each state and the District of Columbia.
Influential Reports. Female Genital
Mutilation/Cutting: Data and Trends—Update
2010 is a new and unique data sheet that
highlights FGM/C data and information for
27 countries. This publication is useful to
those working for the abandonment of FGM/C
and for the improvement of women’s reproductive health.
Unbiased Policy Analysis. For more
than 20 years, PRB has hosted a monthly
seminar series focused on the policy implications of population issues including neglected
tropical diseases, climate change and mortality,
and HIV/AIDS.
Online Resources. PRB’s website
offers full text of all PRB publications, including
our respected Population Bulletins, and webexclusive data and analysis on world issues
ranging from aging to family planning.
Journalist Networks. PRB builds
the capacity of journalists from developing
countries through seminars and study tours.
We organized several study tours for journalists
in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, and Mali to visit
projects and the people they affect.
Policy Communications Training.
In the past decade, PRB has trained more than
800 professionals in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. For example, we sponsored two workshops
with Kenya’s National Coordinating Agency for
Population and Development, training local and
regional policymakers, program managers, and
advocates.
Data Workshops. PRB’s data workshops
and online training assist the Annie E. Casey
Foundation’s KIDS COUNT network in using vital
data about the status of children in the United
States. Participants take away the knowledge
needed to access data about their particular
state and communicate with policymakers.
Evidence-Based Policies. PRB provides analysis for the KIDS COUNT Data Book,
an annual report card on the well-being of
children and families in the United States. The
Data Book has helped promote the passage
of several U.S. policies, including the State
Children’s Health Insurance Program.
Demand for Health Services. An
article written after one study tour for journalists
in Kenya led to a steep increase in vasectomies
in western Kenya. Seminars for journalists in
West Africa increased coverage of contraceptive
supply problems, prompting government action
in Senegal.
Active Coalitions. PRB works with the
East Africa Population, Health, and Environment
Network to increase information sharing across
the region. The AFRICAPHE online discussion
group improves access to information and
capacity-building and funding opportunities.
