Tatarstan has entered the list of the most aging regions of Russia.

      Together with it, the Tambov, Kirov, Kurgan, Tula regions, and the Republic of Mordovia made it into the top six. According to a study referenced by "Izvestia," Tatarstan has entered the list of regions with the fastest aging population. Along with it, the Tambov, Kirov, Kurgan, Tula regions, and the Republic of Mordovia are also in the top six. Aging is mainly observed in the regions of Central Russia, the Volga region, and parts of the Urals. This concerns men aged 63 and older, as well as women from 58 years old. Contrary to expectations, experts associate the high proportion of elderly people in Tatarstan with positive reasons. The republic has a well-developed healthcare system, and a healthy lifestyle is popular among residents, which directly affects the increase in life expectancy. At the same time, the growth in the number of elderly citizens poses risks to the economy. According to experts, in the next two years, Russia could lose up to 1% of potential GDP due to demographic aging.
