Northern America in 1980

As of 1980, Northern America counted 254,502,387 inhabitants. That is 11.0% more than in 1970, when the population stood at 229,339,586. Half of the population was younger than 30.0 years; 22.4% were children under 15 and 10.9% were 65 or older. The pyramid is constrictive: cohorts of children are smaller than those of their parents, reflecting low fertility and an ageing population.
