AGE COMPOSITION Downtown Miami has a good mix of age groups. The majority of Greater Downtown’s population is working-aged. We define this as people between the ages of 25 and 64. Infants, classified as children 4 and under, account for the smallest portion of the population. School-aged children are up 2 percentage points from 2010 and account for 11 percent of the 2018 population. We classify school-aged children as children ages 5 to 19. The college-aged group consists of young adults between 20 to 24 years old. Seniors are classified as people aged 65 and up. The working-aged group shrunk by 2% from 2010 and seniors grew by 2percent. These groups are different from generational cohorts as these classifications are fixed, whereas generations adhere to specific birth-year ranges.

AGE COMPOSITION One of the most notable differences in between Greater Downtown’s population in 2010 versus 2018 is the narrowing of the split between male and female individuals. In 2010, males outnumbered females by nearly 3 percent. In 2018, the split between male and female is nearly even, with 49.4% female and 50.6% male. Data regarding other gender identities or sexual identities were not collected. This group includes, but is not limited to, nonbinary, intersex, and transgender individuals.
