National Geographic’s demographic resources
National Geographic’s resource collection provides maps, articles, and infographics explaining demographics. At its core, demography is the study of the social characteristics and statistics of a human population. Easily accessible pages unpack lessons on population growth, fertility, and the US Census. The resources show how the study of the size, age structures, and economics of different populations can be used for a variety of purposes – including political campaigns, scientific research, and advertising. Explore different approaches to and uses of demography through this interactive site.
