Peru in 2000

As of 2000, Peru counted 26,598,331 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 1990, the population was 22,014,772; it has grown by 20.8% since. With a median age of 22.5 years, Peru had a youth dependency ratio of 56.9 and an old-age dependency ratio of 7.1 per 100 people of working age. 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.
