The population of Romania stood at about 22.5 million in 2000, 3.2% less than 1990. This decrease is due to negative natural growth (since 1992) and emigration. The population is getting older, with the proportion of people below 15 years of age decreasing (from 23.6% in 1990 to 18.7% in 1999) and of people 65 years of age or older increasing (from 10.4% to 13.0%, respectively). This dynamic of ageing is faster in Romania than the average in other central and east European countries, and is in fact fast approaching the EU age structure. However, the proportion of young people in Romania is still 2% above and that of older people 3% below the EU average.
