The graph shows the proportion of the population aged 65 and over between 1940 and 2040 in three different countries.

The graph illustrates the increase in the ageing population in japan, sweden and the USA.

Overall, it indicates that the percentage of elderly people in all three countries is expected to increase to almost 25% of the respective populations by the year 2040.

In 1940, the proportion of people aged 65 or more stood at only 5% in japan, approximately 7% in sweden and 9% in the US. However, while the figures for the Western countries grew to about 15% in around 1990, the figure for japan dipped to only 2.5% for much of this period, before rising to almost 5% again in 2000.

In spite of some fluctuation in the expected percentages, the proportion of older people will probably continue to increase in the next two decades in the three countries. A more dramatic rise is predicted between 2030 and 2040 in japan, by which time it is thought that the proportion of elderly people will be similar in the three countries.
