Iceland in 1970

As of 1970, Iceland counted 204,479 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 1960, the population was 175,560; it has grown by 16.5% since. The median age was 24.5 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 55.7 children under 15 and 15.0 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.
