The midpoint age that separates the younger half of a population from the older half.
The age that falls exactly in the middle of the entire range of ages ranked in order from low to high, such that 50% of the ages fall above it and 50% fall below it. If the number of ages is even, a value halfway between the two ages nearest the middle is used.
The median age is such that exactly one half of the population is older and the other half is younger.
The age for a specific population that divides the population into two equal parts. For grouped census data, the median age is calculated by interpolation between the upper and lower limits of the age group where the cumulative sum of age groups reaches 50%.
The age which divides a population into two equal sized groups; half the members of the population are younger than this age, and half are older.
This measure divides the age distribution into two equal parts: one half of the cases falling below the median value and one-half above the value.
age at which half the population is older and half is younger.
The age that divides a population into two numerically equal groups; that is, half the people are younger than this age and half are older. It is a single index that summarizes the age distribution of a population.
The age that divides a population into two numerically equal groups; that is, the mid-point, where half the people are younger than this age and half are older . Use your browser's back button to return from whence you came.
