And yet we deport undocumented labor which helps fill the population cliff and disproportionately pays into social services since they are not applicable for social security.
Simply does not make sense, we do not have a birth rate high enough for replacement and each retired senior needs 2-3 workers to pay for them.
Seems like we’re cutting off the nose to spite the face here

What was going on about 50 years ago that left a hole like that

I would love to see this for other countries, like South Korean (aka South Carerdddd), Japan, and China.

Colleges that are struggling today will be SCREWED. This is the biggest freshman class that there will be in America for at least the next 20 years

I’d love to know what caused those bumps of children being born.

that baby boom bump in their late 70s is gonna smooth out over the next 10 years. A lot of change is going to happen as the boomers depart, for better or worse.

that taper down from 35 to 0 is going to bite us in the ass real hard in a couple decades.

Crazy that you can see *exactly* when WW2 ended on this chart.

well, all I can say is, at least I’m just now exiting the male surplus which corresponds with the beginning of the female surplus. Maybe I can at least have a really old girlfriend…better late than never I guess.

As a 33 year old I feel surrounded by 32-35 year olds (what up early 90s babies), guess math checks out

Mathematically, an excess female population should theoretically improve my chances of dating. Unfortunately, that would only work if women found my looks and personality attractive.

I would love to see this population if you take out our first and or second immigrant population. The same people that are cheering ICE‘s antics are also the same ones that would be freaking out at the lack of labor…OTOH I’m sure many of them just think that they’re going to use our former….native workforce again.

This is a pretty common trend across all societies – women tend to live longer. Men/young boys die younger when compared to their female counterparts due to higher risk taking behavior.

I completely understand why there are so many more women than men at older ages (men die younger). What I don’t understand is why there are so many more men that are younger. Are male sperm just better swimmers or something?

I understand the (multiple causes for) female excess in later years. Can someone offer explanations for the excess male population in the 45 and younger crowd?

That’s a pretty healthy population pyramid for a well developed country tbh

Men of America…if you make it to 60 then the odds are in your favor. Id say the pickings get good but its women over 60 so lol. Im kidding ladies over 60.

Could be worse, could be a LOT worse. Thank god for immigrants.

This is a dramatically better looking pyramid than any other developed country on Earth lol. Why I remain longterm bullish on America

What is the reason for the male surplus right off the bat at 0 right now?

What happened between the 77 and 78 year olds? That is a huge drop in numbers.

What’s with the small jump, then abrupt drop for both males and females at 77-78 years?

I would’ve chosen any word other than “surplus” 😶
