Population Profiles are proportional graphs showing the percentage of a particular interval as compared to the entire population. In this population profile, non-indigenous population are plotted against indigenous ones. A trend exists between both female and male populations. The percentage of indigenous inhabitants is far greater at younger ages then non-indigenous. This indicates that most immigrants decide to move at mid level ages (20-54). Population profile graphs are useful in visualizing the proportions of population based on age or another variable such as income.
