3. Age and Sex Distribution

3.1 Sex Ratio

Total number of Males x 100Total number of Females

 61 males x 100 = 115.09%53 females

or 115 males for every 100 females

Males: (61/114) x 100 = 53.5%Females: (53/114) x 100 = 46.5%Difference: 7%

Analysis:

The data showed that males slightly outnumber the females in the community by

a mere difference of 7%. Even though there is a slight difference between the numbers

of genders, it still poses some matters that are needed to be dwelt upon. The greater number of males in the community shows a favorable advantage on more physical jobs,

since there is sufficient workforce for such tasks. The number of females may be related

to the number of people that would remain in homes that constitute most of the

household functions. Even though there is just a small gap between the differences of 

the two, it is still logical to present that this small decrease might still affect the functions

of homes. Especially, females are the ones who cater to home functions and the care of 

growth and development of small children – minor deterioration of these might occur.

Analysis:

Most of the data have shown that the people in the 6 to 10 year old bracket

constitute the most number of individuals in Northville Resettlement. This shows that

most are children, most probably of the school age period. This entails somequandaries since the children of this age are most vulnerable to health-related

problems, since their immune system are still yet to reach its potential and these ages

are also the period where children experiment things by curiosity, which can aggregate

more problems if left unnoticed.

There are 40 people who are under the dependent age (15 years old and below

and 65 years old and above), which they constitute as 35.4% of the whole population.

73 people were considered as the independent age, or the working force, which

comprise the remaining 64.6%. This shows that 54.05% are dependent to the

workforce, or, in other terms, for every 100 independent people, there 54 people whoare dependent.

This also shows that in the future years, there will be a healthy amount of people

that will become the present workforce of the population.
