What is this Indicator?
This indicator shows the percentage of the population that is under 18 years old. |
| Why this is important: The age structure of a population is important in planning for the future of a community, particularly for schools, community centers, health care, and child care. A population with more youth will have greater education and child care needs, while an older population may have greater health care needs. |
| Technical Note: The regional value is compared to the national value. |
