Can someone help ? I tried changing the axis but its not working.

This is super helpful! Thanks for sharing.

Is there a way to adjust the width of the middle section where you have age group categories? I want to use this as the viz in the tooltip and want to make the middle part narrower by removing the blank space. Thank you!

Hi Kiara, I totally agree that a population pyramid is just part of the picture (it’s frequencies). But that’s not the same as being “not completely accurate.”

For example, the average age could be used to determine the type of population in a particular region. A population with an average age of 15 would have a young population compared to a population that has an average age of 55, which would be considered an older population. It is also important to consider these measures because the collected data is not completely accurate. The mid-year population is often used in calculations to account for the number of births and deaths that occur.
