Jamaica 

Jamaica has a long history of census taking, and currently holds a census every ten years. The last census took place in July 2011, which showed a total of 2,697,983 residents in the country. A 2012 estimate just one year later showed 2.889 million, while the estimated 2013 population is now 2,808,750. Depending on which estimates you use (the Jamaican government's or the CIA Factbook), Jamaica experienced a population growth of 5 or 15% from 2001 to 2011. Still, there's no doubt that the country is continuing to grow.

 

The CIA World Factbook have also provided data on age breakdowns and life expectancy. As far as age breakdowns were concerned, it was reported that 30.1% of the country’s people were aged between 0 and 14. In addition, 62.3% were between 15 and 64 years of age while 7.6% of the population of Jamaica were aged 65 and over in 2011. Life expectancy figures date from 2006 and at the time it was reported that the average across Jamaica stood at 73.24 years. This could be further divided between men at 71.54 years and women at 75.03 years.
