Demography

Demography is the statistical study of living human populations. It encompasses the study of the size, structure, and distribution of these populations, and spatical and/or temporal change in them in response to birth, migration, aging and death.

Many sociologist are demographers, and others work with data made available by demographers such as censuses.

AGE - SPECIFIC data

AGE - SPECIFIC DATA is very useful. A population pyramid, also called an age picture diagram, is a graphical illustration that shows the distrubution of various age groups in a population (typically that of a country or region of the world), which form that shape of a pyramid when the population is growing.
