Statistical data are supplied by the Institute of Statistics and are collected through the Census of April 2001 and that of October 2011. <p><\/p>\n<p>Data on population among the age groups are usually collected through two main sources: Live Event Register and Censuses. The Life Event Register (or Civic Register) holds data on births and deaths and as result creates data on population among the age groups. But Life Event Register doesn\u2019t maintain data on migration and emigration, a major population factor in the case of Albania. <\/p>\n<p>Thus, data collected through censuses gives a more accurate picture in our case. In some countries, Live Event Register includes also data on migration or emigration, but this is not the case of the National Register of Life Events of Albania.<\/p>\n<p>Available data: INSTAT publishes data on population among age groups for 2001 and 2011. These statistics are reported on a five year interval such as 0 to 4 years old, 5 to 9, 10 to 14 and so forth. These statistics are reported on total population, male and female, urban or rural population.<\/p>\n<p>  <script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/ajax.googleapis.com\/ajax\/static\/modules\/gviz\/1.0\/chart.js\">{<br \/>\n\t\"chartType\":\"ColumnChart\",<br \/>\n\t\"chartName\":\"Chart 1\",<br \/>\n\t\"dataSourceUrl\":\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheet\/tq?range=B5%3AD9&key=0Agylwmr5tEbVdFNQZzdzSWlMTUh4TnNIZ1lVZkpla3c&gid=1&headers=-1\",<br \/>\n\t\"options\":{\"width\":600,\"height\":371,\"title\":\"Population among age groups 2001\/2011\",\"legend\":\"right\",\"isStacked\":false,<br \/>\n\t\"hAxis\": {\"title\": 'Population', \"titleTextStyle\": {\"color\": 'red'}},<br \/>\n\t \"vAxis\": {\"title\": 'Value', \"titleTextStyle\": {\"color\": 'red'}},<br \/>\n    \"labelPosition\":\"right\",\"is3D\":true,\"hasLabelsColumn\":true,},<br \/>\n    \"refreshInterval\":5,<br \/>\n    }<br \/>\n  <\/script><br><sup>Source: Census<br>Analysis and comments: ODA<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>In order to simplify the analysis, Open Data has aggregated these data on three main groups, 0 to 14 years, 15 to 64 years and 65 years and above.
