Aging Population Study Details Shifts and Gaps
The 1984 U.S. population study shows 236.7 million people as of July 1, up from 227.1 million in 1980. Blacks are younger with a median age of 26.3 versus 32.2 for whites, while women average 32.5 and men 30.0. The 75 to 84 age group rose 11.5 percent and 25 to 34 grew 10.3 percent, but 14 to 17 fell 9.5 percent and 5 to 13 declined 3.2 percent due to the baby bust and delayed childbearing trends. The black population rose 6.7 percent to 28.6 million, whites 3.2 percent to 201.4 million.
