Western Europe Population Pyramid 1974
Western Europe in 1974
The population of Western Europe in 1974 was 169,135,711. A decade earlier, in 1964, the population was 158,481,748; it has grown by 6.7% since.
Half of the population was younger than 33.5 years; 23.1% were children under 15 and 13.7% were 65 or older. The pyramid is stationary: cohort sizes are roughly even through the younger ages, reflecting fertility close to replacement level and slow population change.
