the percentage of new zealand population from 1950 to 2050
The graph provides information about the percentage of four groups in the total population of New Zealand between 1950 to 2050. Overall, the population aged from 25 to 37 and over 65 is predicted to be on a decrease, while the opposite was seen in the other two groups. New Zealand's elderly people have been experiencing the dominance in total population.
In 1950, the proportion of the population under 14 years old stood at about 5%, while, people aged over 65 is nearly 61%. Population aged from 25 to 37 and 38 to 45 stood at 20% and approximately 25% respectively, which is only 5% apart. Nevertheless, while the figure for those is adult, middle and retiree is tended to increase in 1960, the figure for children under 14 maintained stable for much this period.
In the next 40 years, the two oldest groups reach a peak at 70% and about 50%, before falling to 55% and 40% respectively in 2050. While a sharp rise is predicted in the population under 14 years old, the proportion of the other group will experience a fall before the top out in 2050.
