Young people in the SMR are divided into 2 distinct age groups, 0-14 years and 15-25 years. The 0-14 age group consistently exhibits higher percentages compared to the 15-25 age group for both males and females across all regions. This indicates a young demographic profile in these areas, especially Cardinia and Casey.
The 15-25 age group, while lower in percentage, shows a relatively balanced distribution between males and females.
This data highlights regional variations in the age and gender distribution, with some areas showing a higher concentration of young children and others with a more balanced age distribution in the 15-25 age group.
