      - How to interpret a population pyramid
        
        Its base
        
        If its wide
        
        It means that there are many children, suggesting a high birth rate
        
        If its narrow
        
        Then there aren’t many children, suggesting a low birth rate
        
        Its top
        
        If its high and wide
        
        There are many old people, then there is a high child expectancy
        
        If its narrow and goes to a point
        
        There is a low life expectancy
        
        Its overall shape
        
        If its like a triangle
        
        Its likely to be a developing country
        
        If its straight up and down
        
        Its likely to be a developed country
        
        Age group ranges

        65+ age range
        
        Old and no longer part of the working population
  - - - In young populations
        
        Young populations have high fertility rates, the population increases, and the young age range dominates
      - In ageing populations
        
        Ageing populations have low fertility rates, the population decreases, and the ageing age range dominates
- - - - family planning is not always available, especially in rural areas
      - Women recieve very little education and marry young
