Population proportions under 14 years old
The World Bank has interesting data on what proportion of a country’s population is aged 14 and under.
The smallest are:
- Hong Kong 12%
- Japan 13%
- Germany 13%
The largest are:
- Niger 50%
- Uganda 48%
- Chad 48%
- Angola 48%
- Afghanistan 47%
NZ has 20% aged under 14.
Those with such high proportions will have both low life expectancy but sadly very high birth rates.
