Age Dependency Ratio: Total

THE DEPENDENCY RATIO FOR ALL PEOPLE

The total age dependency ratio is the ratio of young + elderly dependents (who are generally economically inactive, under 15 or over 64 years old), compared to the number of people of working age (15-64-year-olds).

A high dependency ratio means those of working age, and the overall economy, face a greater burden in supporting the dependent population.
