Abstract

This study examines demographic change in Algeria through a set of core demographic indicators, including population growth, the rate of population increase, life expectancy, births, mortality, sex distribution, and age structure, as represented by the population pyramid. It also analyses family and social dynamics, notably age at first marriage, educational attainment, and patterns of residence. By offering a detailed account of the Algerian population, this study highlights the gradual process of demographic aging and evolving fertility trends.
