Ageing in regions and cities

High resolution projections for Europe in 2030

This report presents an experimental exercise in which the LUISA population distribution method has been extended to break down its local population distribution outcomes by broad age class. To do so, elaborate methods have been set up to disaggregate observed age class distribution data to fine spatial resolution raster data; to account for age-class specific demographic expectations; and to model changes in population composition while constrained by LUISA’s local population results and expected age class sizes at the regional level. This report describes the developed methodology and summarizes the obtained results.
