Why is the Average Age Increasing in Israel?
The fertility rate is the primary cause of the average age increase in Israel. On average, it is stated that women bear three children, which is a high rate according to European standards. Due to this, Israel's population is primarily young, with 28% of Israelis under 15 and 10% older than 65. It is calculated that it increases by 1.9% each year.

Economic, Social, and Political Impacts of the Aging Population.
Economic, Social, and Political Impacts of the Aging Population.
Economic: Israel's aging population is projected to double by 2050. To reduce economic impacts, the government has started actively promoting the employment of older people and improving their employability.
Social: Most of the aging population in Israel helped build the country when it was founded in 1948. As a result, government efforts have been made to improve the accessibility of public facilities and transportation to keep the older generations independent.
Political: Due to the rising aging population, the Israeli government has included policies such as free schooling until age three and child allowances.
