How this figure is calculated
Population ages 0-14, total divided by Land area (sq. km), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Population ages 0-14, total ÷ Land area (sq. km)
Computed from
- Population ages 0-14, total Staff estimates, World Bank (WB), note: Staff estimates using the World Bank's total population and age/sex distributions of the United Nations Population Division's World Population Prospects., publi
