Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs announced on April 12th that the nation's population has dropped by another 830,000 people from the same time last year, with only a population of 124 million 352 thousand (including foreigners) and a looming aging population.
This marks the 13th year in a row of the Japanese population's decline, with the native Japanese population dropping by 837,000 people to 121 million 193 thousand. This shows the increase in the number of foreigners making up the population ratio.
There are also now over 20,000,000 elderly people in Japan who are over 75 years old, while 0-14-year-olds fell by 329,000 to 14 million 173 thousand people, now only 11.4% of the population.
Meanwhile, the able population of 15-64 year olds fell to 73 million 952 thousand, only a 0.1 point increase from last year's record low. Finally, the number of 65-year-olds and above now make up 29.1% of the population.
