The charts below compare the age structure of the populations of France and India in 1984.
The bar charts compare the
age
and gender distribution of the populations of
France
and India in 1984, presented in percentages.
Overall
, it is evident that
France
’s
population
displayed more variation across
age
groups,
while
India’s
population
showed a clear decline in numbers as
age
increased. Notably, the life expectancy in
France
was higher compared to India during
this
period. In
France
, the
population
distribution resembled a bell shape. The percentages of infants and young adults in both genders were approximately 4%, followed by the middle-aged group (35-60 years old) at around 3%, and the elderly
population
at less than 3%. It is noteworthy that the elderly
population
over 70 years old in
France
was predominantly female, with the male elderly
population
being only half of the female figure.
Conversely
, India’s
population
distribution was pyramid-shaped. Infants and young children had the highest proportion among all
age
groups, at about 6-7% in both genders. Unlike in
France
, the elderly
population
(over 70 years old) in India was a minority but surprisingly slightly outnumbered those in the 65-70
age
group.
