Sweden in 1960

As of 1960, Sweden counted 7,484,597 inhabitants. A decade earlier, in 1950, the population was 7,016,566; it has grown by 6.7% since. Half of the population was younger than 36.0 years; 22.4% were children under 15 and 11.7% were 65 or older. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.
