Abstract
The purpose of this study is to estimate the future population based on the resident population of cities and counties in Gyeongsangbuk-do (1998-2020). Based on the resident population of Gyeongsangbuk-do from 1998 to 2020, the population by age, male and female, from 0 to 100 years old, was estimated for 24 cities and counties in Gyeongsangbuk-do, including the entire Gyeongsangbuk-do, by 2060, 40 years later. The total registered population of Gyeongsangbuk-do reached its peak at 2,703,929 in September 2014, then began to decline in October 2014 and showed a steep decline after November 2015. The low marriage rate of adult men and women and the number of marriages contributed to the low fertility rate. This in turn affects the decline in the number of women of childbearing age, which in turn affects the number of marriages and low fertility rates. As a result, the population decline of cities and counties in Gyeongsangbuk-do is serious.
