In all age groups until 29 years old, there were more men than women in Russia as of January 1, 2024. After that age, the female population outnumbered the male population in each category. The most represented age group in the country was from 35 to 39 years old, with approximately *** million women and *** million men. Male-to-female ratio in Russia The number of men in Russia was historically lower than the number of women, which was a result of population losses during World War I and World War II. In 1950, in the age category from 25 to 29 years, ** men were recorded per 100 women in the Soviet Union. In today’s Russia, the female-to-male ratio in the same age group reached *** women per 1,000 men. Russia has the highest life expectancy gender gap The World Health Organization estimated the average life expectancy of women across the world at over five years longer than men. In Russia, this gap between genders exceeded 10 years. According to the study “Burden of disease in Russia, 1980-2016: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016,” Russia had the highest gender difference in life expectancy worldwide.

As of January 1, 2024, the largest share of individuals aged 80 years and older in Russia was represented by women, at almost 75 percent. Meanwhile, men outnumbered women in all age categories up to 29 years. The age group between 30 and 39 years was distributed approximately equally between the two genders.

This statistic depicts the age distribution of Russia from 2013 to 2023. In 2023, about 17.51 percent of Russia's population fell into the 0-14 year category, 65.88 percent into the 15-64 age group and 16.6 percent were over 65 years of age.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Russia, OH population pyramid, which represents the Russia population distribution across age and gender, using estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. It lists the male and female population for each age group, along with the total population for those age groups. Higher numbers at the bottom of the table suggest population growth, whereas higher numbers at the top indicate declining birth rates. Furthermore, the dataset can be utilized to understand the youth dependency ratio, old-age dependency ratio, total dependency ratio, and potential support ratio.

Key observations

• Youth dependency ratio, which is the number of children aged 0-14 per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Russia, OH, is 41.0.
• Old-age dependency ratio, which is the number of persons aged 65 or over per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Russia, OH, is 40.0.
• Total dependency ratio for Russia, OH is 81.0.
• Potential support ratio, which is the number of youth (working age population) per elderly, for Russia, OH is 2.5.
