The above image is a population profile for Mobile County. The age is on the y-axis and the x-axis are the percentages of each age class to the total population divided up into two columns (males and females). There is a smaller percentage of 20 - 30 year olds with a slight increase in the 40 year old range representing migration and the baby boom. A population profile shows the age and sex distributions for any given region.
