About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the population of Many by gender across 18 age groups. It lists the male and female population in each age group along with the gender ratio for Many. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of Many by gender and age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group for both Men and Women in Many. 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 Many.

Cultural diversity in the U.S. has led to great variations in names and naming traditions and names have been used to express creativity, personality, cultural identity, and values. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naming_in_the_United_States

Content

This public dataset was created by the Social Security Administration and contains all names from Social Security card applications for births that occurred in the United States after 1879. Note that many people born before 1937 never applied for a Social Security card, so their names are not included in this data. For others who did apply, records may not show the place of birth, and again their names are not included in the data.

All data are from a 100% sample of records on Social Security card applications as of the end of February 2015. To safeguard privacy, the Social Security Administration restricts names to those with at least 5 occurrences.
