The child dependency ratio is the ratio of the population aged 0-19 to the population aged 20-64. They are presented as number of dependants per 100 persons of working age (20-64).
The old-age dependency ratio is the ratio of the population aged 65 years or over to the population aged 20-64. They are presented as number of dependants per 100 persons of working age (20-64).
The total dependency ratio is the ratio of the population aged 0-19 and that aged 65+ to the population aged 20-64. They are presented as number of dependants per 100 persons of working age (20-64).
The population doubling time corresponds to the number of years required for the total population to double in size if the annual rate of population change would remain constant. Doubling time is
computed only for fast growing populations with growth rates exceeding 0.5 per cent.
Adult mortality is expressed as deaths under age 60 per 1,000 alive at age 15 and represents the probability of dying between age 15 and age 60 (45q15).
The net reproduction rate is expressed as number of daughters per woman and represents the average number of daughters a hypothetical cohort of women would have at the end of their reproductive
period if they were subject during their whole lives to the fertility rates and the mortality rates of a given period.
