average proportion of residents aged 45+ o Below average proportion of residents aged 15-44 o Similar to average proportion of young people aged 0-14 o An estimated 47,461 households (2017), which is expected to increase by just 2% by 2037 (and the working-age population decrease by 8%) Implications? o Darlington’s dependency ratio, i.e. the ratio of children and older people to working age adults, is already higher than average o According to ONS population projections outlined above this is predicted to get worse, and at a faster rate than elsewhere o Without intervention, this is likely to translate into increasing pressures on public services and risk future growth 3 This document was classified as: OFFICIAL Ward Population Bank Top & Lascelles 7,620 Brinkburn & Faverdale
