    Snippet: 1 The statistically significant correlation between life expectancy at 65 and the population share of elderly does appear at older age definitions of elderly. The correlation between the natural log of life expectancy at 65 and the natural log of the share at 75+ is r = 0.175 (p = 0.365), and r = 0.570 (p = 0.001) with the share at 85+.

    Document: 1 The statistically significant correlation between life expectancy at 65 and the population share of elderly does appear at older age definitions of elderly. The correlation between the natural log of life expectancy at 65 and the natural log of the share at 75+ is r = 0.175 (p = 0.365), and r = 0.570 (p = 0.001) with the share at 85+. This pattern of a rising correlation between life expectancy at 65 and older definitions of elderly share reflects the increasing predominance of the survival component of population size as one graduates up the age structure. 2 Countries with GDP per capita in 2018 above the median GDP per capita across Europe are included. GDP per capita data are from the World Bank.
