Europe's population is getting older, but not all places are ageing equally.
And the gap between regions of population growth and regions of population decline is set to get wider in the coming decades, according to a new report on demographic change from the Commission's Joint Research Centre.
'The Demographic Landscape of EU Territories' moves beyond traditional country-level analysis to explore demographics at different scales: from regions, right down to individual neighbourhoods.
The report assesses the impact of Europe's diverse ageing and population trends on labour productivity, GDP, access to services, political attitudes and electoral outcomes over the last ten years. It also projects how these trends are likely to develop up to 2050. In doing so, the report provides new insights that can help target efforts to tackle economic inequalities and demographic imbalances.
