UK Deaths to Outnumber Births from 2026 as Population Growth Slows

The Office for National Statistics projects deaths will outnumber births in the UK every year from 2026, with the population expected to peak in the 2050s before declining. Net migration has fallen sharply from nearly 1 million in 2023 to just over 200,000, contributing to slower population growth. By 2034, pensioners will comprise a fifth of the population while the number of children is projected to fall by 1.6 million.

UK Population to Peak in 2050s Before Declining, ONS Projects

The UK population is projected to peak in the 2050s before declining, with deaths expected to outnumber births annually from 2026, according to Office for National Statistics projections. The population will reach 71 million by 2034, growing by just 1.7 million in the next decade—far slower than the previous decade. Net migration is expected to add 2.2 million people between 2024-2034, down from previous estimates, as the post-Brexit immigration peak is now viewed as a temporary blip.
