This statistic shows a forecast of the grey population pressure in the Netherlands from 2015 to 2060. It reveals that between 2015 and 2040 the grey population pressure is expected to increase rapidly, from 30 percent in 2015 to 51 percent in 2040.

Forecast of the grey population pressure in the Netherlands from 2015 to 2060
The grey population pressure is the ratio of the non-working population (over 65 years) to the working population (20-65 years) and is calculated by dividing the total of the non-working population over 65 by the working population x 100. The higher the grey population pressure, the more non-working people over the age of 65 the working population has to support.
