This is higher than the national median age of 28.2 years. The proportion of the population aged 60 and above in Kerala is 12.1%, which is higher than the national average of 9.3%. The aging population is a result of a number of factors, including low fertility rates, high life expectancy, and out-migration of young people.<\/p>\n<p>A young population is one in which the majority of the population is below the age of 15. This can be due to high fertility rates, low life expectancy, or in-migration of young people. A young population can have a number of positive effects, such as a large workforce, a vibrant culture, and a low dependency ratio. However, it can also lead to problems such as unemployment, crime, and environmental degradation.<\/p>\n<p>An evenly distributed age structure is one in which the population is evenly distributed across all age groups. This is ideal, as it means that there is a balance between the young and the old, and between the working and the non-working population. However, it is rare to find a population that is perfectly evenly distributed.<\/p>\n<p>A declining population is one in which the number of people is decreasing. This can be due to low fertility rates, high mortality rates, or out-migration. A declining population can have a number of negative effects, such as a shrinking workforce, a loss of cultural diversity, and an increased burden on the economy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Young Population&#8221;
