In 1950, senior residents in New Zealand accounted for over 60%, compared with around 25% of people aged 38-45, about 21% of citizens in the age range of 25 to 37, and approximately 5% of people are under 14. Over the next 50 years, the percentage of citizens aged over 65 and 38–45 both witnessed a decreasing fluctuation, falling to 60% and about 40% respectively. In contrast, after remaining stable from 1950 to 1990, the figure for residents in the age range of 0 to 14 showed a slight increase to 10%.
