The two images above display the differences in trends about “urban and rural populations” and “trends in different age groups” throughout 1950 to 2040.
Overall, the first graph, which is the about the urban and rural population trends, consist of three lines total, urban, and rural respectively. The second graph, however, shows lines of ages ranging from 0-15, 16-65 and over 65 in the same time interval. In both graphs, there is an upward trend with “total” and “16-65” line started at the highest and increased the most.
Firstly, started from around 8 and 2 and ended at 15-6, urban and rural increased somewhat linearly from the year 1950 and 2000. The same can also be said for two lower age groups in the second image. The group 0-15 ends at the value of 6, only 2 higher than the start. Parallelly, the age group of over 65 started at 3 and expanded to 5. For the two highest lines in the two graphs, the “total” line and the “15-65” line, both started at around 10 and lasts at 26 for the previous line, 24 for the latter category.
Ultimately, in the last interval spanning from 2000 to
2040, 5 out of six lines has a steep rise, only the “0-15” group has a decrease. The total line, which is the sum of both urban and rural’s values, ended at around 45, almost five times higher than the starting value. The two age group that still have an upward trend in the second graph have a value of 27 for “16-65” and 9 for the “65+” age group in 2040. The only line that has a downgrade ended at around 5, 4 value lower than what it has in the year 2000
