6 Demography
Across the whole Albania in 2014, young per- POPULATION PYRAMID, 2014
sons (0-14 years old) account for 18.9 % of the
total population, while old persons aged 65 and 85+

Having a look at the population structure over 65-69

the years, it is obvious that the share of youth 55-59
in the total population has been decreased 50-54
45-49
while the share of the elderly is increased. The 40-44
35-39
main reasons for this phenomenon are due to
30-34
a decrease in fertility rates on one hand and 25-29
20-24
to an increase in life expectancy, on the other
15-19
hand. In 2001, the share of youth in the total 10-14

population was 29.3 %, this was about 10 %

high than in 2014. The share of the elderly, on
