About this dataset

Context

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

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 Morocco, IN, is 23.5.
• Old-age dependency ratio, which is the number of persons aged 65 or over per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Morocco, IN, is 24.9.
