In 1911, the national population structure was a perfect pyramid but 100 years on the populations in different age groups are much more evenly mixed with a wide belt being seen to move upward with age. Whilst the geographical spread of population growth has been uneven across East Renfrewshire localities, the age- distribution of change since 2001 also reveals particular concentrations. The rate of change in age specific population groups between Scotland and East Renfrewshire was most pronounced among 15 – 64 year olds and the 65 and older population. The decrease in under 15s and a stable 15 – 64 population size in East Renfrewshire is coupled with sizeable increase in the 65+ population. This highlights the changing age structure within the local authority19
