*The age of London’s population – how it’s changing & what this tells us* London is in general younger than the rest of England This is largely due to the number of young adults in the capital. 1 in 3 Londoners are 20-40 y/o, compared to just 1 in 5 in the rest of England...
A chart showing population proportions by age group in London and the rest of England for 2023. It shows that London has a younger population compared to the rest of England, which has a higher proportion of older age groups.
