Visualize social-science data with population pyramids
Share

The population pyramid is commonly used in demographics. In this example, it clearly tilts right, showing that women live longer than men and make up a dominant percentage of older age groups. This visual example uses bins on the age field and a simple calculation to split the genders. And by using a parameter, it also lets you select a particular year.
