Ethiopia Economic Dependence

Gridded, spatial datasets for Africa providing version 1.0 estimates for dependency ratios at sub-national level. Ratios are based on sub-national estimates for 5-year age group proportions. The series is comprised of raster dataset: 1) The ratio of dependents (both young, 0 to 14, and old, 65 ) upon the working age population; 2) The ratio of young dependents upon the working age population; 3) The ratio of older dependents upon the working age population. DATA RESOLUTION: Sub-national administrative areas SPATIAL RESOLUTION: 0.05 decimal degrees (approx 5kkm at the equator) PROJECTION: Geographic, WGS84 UNITS: Sub-national dependency ratios FORMAT: Geotiff (zipped using 7-zip (open access tool): www.7-zip.org) DATASET CONSTRUCTION DETAILS: This dataset is derived from the WorldPop Whole Continent Age Structures data series, described here: http://www.worldpop.org.uk/data/data_sources/.
