French Guiana in 1970

As of 1970, French Guiana counted 46,279 inhabitants. That is 48.9% more than in 1960, when the population stood at 31,084. Half of the population was younger than 21.9 years; 37.3% were children under 15 and 5.0% 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.
