The median age was 32.8 in 1990 (slightly below the national average), and was 35.7 in 2000. The slow rise of the median age is due to the aging of the Baby Boom, not to any massive influx of seniors. In 1998, median age for the U.S. was 35.2. Much of metropolitan Tucson's growth over the next 20 years will be driven by working age people moving here for employment opportunities. AGE COHORTS: PIMA COUNTY – 2007
Arizona Official Population Projections 2006 – 2055 The Arizona Dept. of Economic Security has published its official population projections for the State and all counties: 2006 – 2055. In the tables below, we provide copies of the most widely used tables of these projections. The members of the Pima Association of Governments [as well as those in the Phoenix Metro area] do not support the adoption and use of these projections. It is our belief that these projections are unacceptably low, especially in the later periods. We believe that the population growth portrayed here does not reflect the more youthful forces of migration from foreign sources and makes Pima County appear too ‘old’, with too few births and too many deaths. We publish these projections as a public service.
