What is Demography?

Demography is the scientific study of human populations and their characteristics, such as size, structure, distribution, and growth. It involves analyzing social and economic factors that influence birth rates, death rates, migration trends, and other demographic patterns. Demography is important for understanding and predicting demographic changes and their potential impacts on societies, economies, and environments. Demographic data and analysis also inform policy decisions related to healthcare, education, immigration, and social welfare.
