Australia in 1950

In 1950, Australia had a total population of 8,176,750 people. Half of the population was younger than 30.4 years; 26.6% were children under 15 and 8.2% were 65 or older. 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.
