General description

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) produces national population projections for Wales, and the other UK countries (release date: 28 January 2025). This dataset provides the Wales data from that source by sex, single year of age and each year from the base year of 2022, through the projection period to 2047.

Rounding applied

Data are rounded independently to the nearest whole number and may not add exactly. Mean and median ages are rounded to two decimal places and are not additive.

Revisions information

These data replaced the 2021-based national population projections for Wales as the formal projections of population change.
