The 2026 population pyramid of Japan; the highlighted row is the 1995 cohort.

This generation, then and now

People born in 1995 in Japan are 31 years old in 2026. There are about 1.2 million of them, the 52nd most numerous single year of age out of 101.

The cohort started at about 1.2 million (children aged 0 at the beginning of 1996). Babies born around 2026 number about 750,581, 64% of that.

This cohort turns 65 in 2060. Japan is then projected to have 98.1 million people, 37.2% of them aged 65 or over, with 1.4 people of working age (15–64) per person aged 65+, compared with 2.0 in 2026.

Following the cohort over time, it is projected to number about 0 in 2095 (age 100), from 1.2 million at the start; deaths and migration change the count each year.

Figures from 2024 are UN medium-variant projections.
