The given bar charts illustrate the age pyramid of the population in two countries Nigeria and the United States in the surveyed year 2010.
At first glance from bar charts, it is conclusive that citizens living in the developing country Nigeria were younger than those living in the developed country America. Another noticeable feature was that the level of Nigerian people aged from 45 to 49 and the rate of American inhabitants aged 0-4 were two cohorts topping the chart in the population of two countries.
Looking at the population pyramid of the United States, the women demographic tended to be more significant than men ones did, especially the senior group from 60 years old. Topped the chart was the percentage of people aged from 0 to 49, with approximately around 18 to 20%. Besides, there was a decline in each four-year age bracket from 50 years old, decreasing by roughly 1 to 3%. In terms of the senior people above 80, the percentage of this group of people is recorded as the lowest compared to the total population in France. In addition, there is not much difference between the percentage of people living over 80 years old in both sexes.
Turning to the distribution of age in Nigeria, in terms of genders, there was no difference dividing between the percentage of the population. However, the average life expectancy of people living in developing country Nigeria was shorter than that of citizens living in developed country America. The percentage of the minor group accounted for roughly 20%; and then, this also declined gradually in each four-year age cohort. Therefore, almost older citizens from 75 years old did not appear, with the figure of this group was the smallest, at only approximately 1%.
