POPULATION PYRAMIDS

Objectives §WHAT is a population pyramid? §HOW to read a population pyramid? §Recognise SHAPES of population pyramids. §IMPORTANCE of population pyramids.

What is a population pyramid? §It is a diagram that gives information about the proportion of males and females in each age group. §Also shows: - proportion of young people (0 -14 ) - proportion of working people (15 – 59) - proportion of elderly people (60+)

What is a population pyramid? Vertical Axis - Age Groups Horizontal Axis – Percentage / number Young dependents Working population Elderly dependents

How to read a population pyramid? §Read the title e.g. country or city or racial group §Comment on general shape of the pyramid §Note the proportion of people in various age groups §Note the sex ratio  Interpret the data

Types of Population Pyramid 1. Triangular-shaped 2. Beehive-shaped Pyramid 3. Rectangular-shaped Pyramid Shape of pyramids is controlled by l births, l deaths, & l migrations.

Triangular-shaped Pyramid (Broad-based Pyramid)

Broad-based Pyramid Title: India, 2000 Shape: Broad Base - high birth rates Narrow Top - small elderly pop - high death rate Proportion: - Large proportion of young - high young dependency ratio Sex Ratio: Balance pyramid - Balance sex ratio

Indonesia 2000 Malaysia 2000

Beehive-shaped Pyramid

Title: Singapore, 2000 Shape: Rocket-shaped / Narrow Base – Low Birth Rates, Slow pop growth Proportion: Large proportion of working population, yr old - large group of economically active pop Sex Ratio: Balanced pyramid

Hong Kong 2000 Taiwan 2000

Rectangular-shaped Pyramid

Rectangular Pyramid Title: Netherlands, 2000 Shape: Rectangular-shaped - Zero Pop Growth Narrow Base - Low Birth Rates - Life-expectancy is high e.g Low death rates Proportion: Bars of equal length - Balance Proportion Sex Ratio: Balance pyramid - Balance Sex Ratio

UK 2000 Netherlands 2000

Population Pyramids in Transition

Each pyramid tells a story about the past, present & future of a country & its people.

Importance of Population Pyramids §Policy Planning ~ future housing estates ~ future schools ~ future jobs §Comparison with other countries ~ developed (US) vs developing (India)
