They study population size, density, distribution, age structure, sex ratio, birth and death rates, and the immigration and emigration of humans. Data gathered by demographers help us understand how differences in population characteristics and related phenomena (for instance, decisions about reproduction) affect human communities and their environments. We can use demographic data to predict population dynamics and the potential environmental impacts of populations.
