Oceania Population Pyramid 1965
Oceania in 1965
In 1965, Oceania had a total population of 17,616,867 people. Over the previous ten years the population grew by 24.5%, up from 14,145,090 in 1955.
The median age was 25.2 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 55.8 children under 15 and 11.9 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.
