Population Profiles

​How to draw a population pyramid:
1. Draw a horizontal axis and add the scale. Remember to start in the middle with your scale and represent the males on
the left and the females on the right.

2. Draw two lines in the centre of the graph as your vertical axis. Label the age groups starting with 0-4 years and then increasing in 5 year age groups up the graph.

3. Using the data plot the bars with data for males on the left and data for females on the right. Don’t forget to label your graph!
