Kenya in 1970

In 1970, Kenya had a total population of 11,368,791 people. A decade earlier, in 1960, the population was 7,695,307; it has grown by 47.7% since. Half of the population was younger than 14.4 years; 51.6% were children under 15 and 2.2% were 65 or older. The pyramid is expansive: its wide base of young cohorts reflects high fertility and a rapidly growing population.
