摘要：Gender and Age Group Structures in Mureş County,at the 2011 Census. The importance of possessing knowledge regarding the above mentioned component stems from territorial demographic and social‐economic planning. Thusly,we emphasized the population gender structure,starting with both genders (BG),followed by male (M) and female (F) populations. We then proceeded to examine age groups,according to the logical succession comprising young people (0‐19 years of age),adults (20‐59 years),and seniors (≥ 60 years). The demographic pyramid of Mureş County reveals the same aging process recorded at national level,with a regressive population,where young people register increasingly lower values,while elderly people are more numerous. Age group structure is also influenced by other exogenous factors,such as migration (internal and external). The young urban population of Mureş County is lower (19.89%) than in rural areas (24.93%),while the latter areas have an older population (23%) compared to urban areas (21.72%). The adult population dominates all of the county’s administrative‐territorial units,the highest values having been recorded in urban settlements (58.39%),where the county seat,the city of Târgu Mureș,reigns supreme (60.08%),while rural areas registered an average of 52.09%,with higher values (above 60%) only in Corunca and Sângeorgiu de Mureş.
