Japan in 1966

The population of Japan in 1966 was 101,887,835. A decade earlier, in 1956, the population was 93,342,008; it has grown by 9.2% since. The median age was 28.0 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 35.2 children under 15 and 9.4 people aged 65 or over. The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
