1975Caribbean in 1975
In 1975, the Caribbean had a total population of 27,640,190 people. Over the previous ten years the population grew by 19.7%, up from 23,096,878 in 1965.
Half of the population was younger than 20.0 years; 39.6% were children under 15 and 5.2% 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.
