Mauritius in 1970

In 1970, Mauritius had a total population of 827,695 people. A decade earlier, in 1960, the population was 680,331; it has grown by 21.7% since. The median age was 18.5 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 76.0 children under 15 and 6.6 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.
