World in 1992

In 1992, the World had a total population of 5,505,989,816 people. A decade earlier, in 1982, the population was 4,612,673,421; it has grown by 19.4% since. Half of the population was younger than 24.3 years; 32.7% were children under 15 and 6.2% were 65 or older. This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
