Abstract
This article analyses the changing population of young adults aged 18–26 and its geographic distribution in the Prague metropolitan region between 2002 and 2017. It reveals a dynamically declining proportion of young adults in all parts of the metropolitan region as the result of major changes that have occurred in the general age structure of the population and age-specific migration to the suburbs. However, the number of young adults living in the Prague hinterland has increased as the result of massive suburban population growth. While young adults have been somewhat less visible until now, they will gain increasing importance in the coming decades, as the large cohorts of children born to suburbanites will gradually reach the age of young adulthood.
