Population Profile

This is a simple population profile for Northern Ireland for the year 1971. The horizontal scale reads the number of individuals (in tens of thousands) and the vertical scale displays the age groups (in tens of years) to which these individuals belong. The resolution is modest so areas where similar age groups have similar population sizes tend to blend together, but otherwise it is easily legible.
