New Zealand in 1950

In 1950, New Zealand had a total population of 1,911,263 people. Half of the population was younger than 29.4 years; 29.0% were children under 15 and 9.1% 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.
