What is a population pyramid?
A population pyramid is two back-to-back bar graphs, one showing the number
of males and one showing females in a particular population in five-year age
groups. Males are conventionally shown on the left and females on the right.
A great deal of information about the population can be read from a
population pyramid. An optimally shaped pyramid is "larger" on the bottom
(younger age groups) and "smaller" on the top (older age groups).
