United States of America in 2004

The population of the United States of America in 2004 was 292,786,254. That is 10.3% more than in 1994, when the population stood at 265,474,810. The median age was 36.0 years, and for every 100 people of working age (15–64) there were 30.5 children under 15 and 18.0 people aged 65 or over. This is a stationary pyramid — similar numbers in each age group up to the older cohorts, the signature of near-replacement fertility.

The bulge of cohorts born between 1946 and 1964 — the post-war baby boom — is the defining feature of the United States pyramid, visible as it moves up the age scale over the decades.
