About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Brazil, IN population pyramid, which represents the Brazil population distribution across age and gender, using estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. It lists the male and female population for each age group, along with the total population for those age groups. Higher numbers at the bottom of the table suggest population growth, whereas higher numbers at the top indicate declining birth rates. Furthermore, the dataset can be utilized to understand the youth dependency ratio, old-age dependency ratio, total dependency ratio, and potential support ratio.

Key observations

• Youth dependency ratio, which is the number of children aged 0-14 per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Brazil, IN, is 27.2.
• Old-age dependency ratio, which is the number of persons aged 65 or over per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Brazil, IN, is 30.7.
• Total dependency ratio for Brazil, IN is 57.9.
• Potential support ratio, which is the number of youth (working age population) per elderly, for Brazil, IN is 3.3.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the population of Brazil by gender across 18 age groups. It lists the male and female population in each age group along with the gender ratio for Brazil. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of Brazil by gender and age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group for both Men and Women in Brazil. Additionally, it can be used to see how the gender ratio changes from birth to senior most age group and male to female ratio across each age group for Brazil.
