Age dependency ratio, young (% of working-age population)

This indicator represents the proportion of young dependents, specifically individuals under the age of 15, relative to the working-age population comprising those from 15 to 64 years old. Expressed as the number of young dependents per 100 members of the working-age demographic, this metric provides insights into the potential economic strain on the labor force and resource allocation for education and social services. A higher ratio suggests a greater burden on working-age individuals to support the younger population, which can impact economic growth, labor market dynamics, and decision-making regarding family planning and workforce development. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for policymakers aiming to create balanced supports for both young and working-age citizens. Source:
