Demographics

Demographics are the measurable features of an overall population such as age race, gender, income and educational levels, types of employment, home ownership and marital status. Demographic trends reveal how changing characteristics of a population may affect a business, society and public policy. For example, marketing companies use demographics to figure out how much of an area’s population is of retirement age, and public policy analysts may rely on demographic statistics to make decisions regarding health resources for an ageing population.
