Albania Population Pyramid 1975
Albania in 1975
In 1975, Albania had a total population of 2,454,859 people. A decade earlier, in 1965, the population was 1,894,312; it has grown by 29.6% since.
The median age was 19.8 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 70.9 children under 15 and 9.0 people aged 65 or over. This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
