In Kenya, the median age is projected to increase from 15.6 years in 2000 to 21.4 years by 2030. The rise reflects a gradual transition toward an older population, driven by declining fertility rates and improved health services.
From 2000 to 2010, the median age rises slowly, with noticeable growth starting after 2010. By 2020, it reaches 18.8 years and continues to climb, surpassing 21 years by 2028.
This demographic shift indicates potential implications for Kenya's socioeconomic landscape, necessitating strategic planning in education, healthcare, and employment to support a younger population aging into adulthood.
