Netherlands centenarians
Brussels - KUNA
There are 2,200 Dutch people who have celebrated their 100th birthday and the number of people in the Netherlands reaching the age of over 100 has doubled in the past 14 years, the Dutch national statistics, CBS, office reported Monday.
Netherlands has a total population of around 17 million.
There are more female than male centenarians but the balance is likely to change as more men stop smoking and women smoke more, it said.
This number of centenarians will double again by 2025, noted CBS.
