The median age of Albania's population has risen significantly from 26.2 in 2000 to a projected 40.1 by 2030. This sharp increase reflects Albania's ongoing demographic shift, driven by declining birth rates, emigration, and longer life expectancy. By 2020, the median age surpassed 35, indicating a maturing population. The trend suggests an aging society, which may lead to economic challenges related to workforce shortages and increased demand for elderly care. This demographic transition is expected to continue, with the median age reaching over 40 by 2030.
