Whereas the youngest age group only experienced a slight decrease, there was a significant decrease in the figure of 25 – 34 age group, from 80% to 60%. However, both of the groups record after 1988, with the younger stabilizing at around 90% and the elder rose again at its starting points.
On the other hand, the proportion of people whose age was between 35-49 observed a more stable movement, starting at 60%. With minor fluctuations, the figure ascended towards the end of the period at around 70%. The same pattern was recorded in the figure for people at 50 and onward, which accrue to 50% in 2008
