Human is the object of social activities. The change of population age structure will impact on the level of collective consumption. Nowadays, the situation of population aging in our country presents the obvious acceleration, which brings a multiple of unexpected troubles.

At the same time can also be for the current response to provide the corresponding reference and reference. Based on the time series data of consumption, GDP and the ratio of the old to the teenager from 1981 to 2011.Using co-integration theory, an error correction model, vector auto-regression model，this paper does an empirical analysis on the relation between population aging, GDP and old—teenager ratio in China.
