In the Cook Islands in 2024, the population decreased by about 2.24 percent compared to the previous year, making it the country with the highest population decline rate in 2024. Of the 20 countries with the highest rate of population decline, the majority are island nations, where emigration rates are high (especially to Australia, New Zealand, and the United States), or they are located in Eastern Europe, which suffers from a combination of high emigration rates and low birth rates.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Newport News, VA population pyramid, which represents the Newport News 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

The majority of Indonesia’s population lives on the island of Java and most of its metropolises, including Bekasi, Tangerang, Depok, Bandung, Semarang, and Surabaya, are all located there. Bekasi, Tangernang and Depok are located less than ** km away from the city of Jakarta creating an expansive urban and suburban metropolis region. This rapid urbanization is largely uncontrolled and may jeopardize the regions sustainability in years to come. The good news is that the population growth rate of Indonesia is slowing down ever so slightly, because of a likewise decreasing fertility rate.

Indonesia’s economy is also fairly diversified, which some may consider a strength for an island economy from a self-sufficiency standpoint. Agriculture also still plays an important role, composing close to a ** percent share of the country’s economy, and while the country is still developing, it still produces a large portion of food which helps feed its ever increasing urban population.
