Talk:Demographics of Alabama

message: The numbers seem off, citation needed for "51.7% of Alabamians are female and 48.3% are male; there is a surplus of 600,000 women in the age range of 25–44."
Doing some quick calcs for a population of about 4,447,100 in 2000: a 600,000 excess of women over men in age range 25-44 would produce a percent difference of 43.25% men, 56.75% women (1,923,550 men and 2,523,550 women in total population) unless other age brackets are equally wildly skewed towards men.  Thus, the "600,000 excess of women" number does not appear mathematically sound.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5ht2a (talk • contribs) 14:58, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

message: I think that it would be better to have this information back in the main article and not as a seperate article. The Demographics section was not very long, and shouldn't new subarticles only be created if the section is very, very long? - BSveen 19:36, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
*It seemed the section was disproportionately long, especially just to restate a list of numbers that are easily available (and officially maintained) at census.gov. A summary of Alabama's demographics definitely belongs on the main page, but if there's going to be a lot of detail, my opinion is a subpage is the place for it. Dystopos 20:07, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

message: Why does the 2020 Census information only list race? And why does it do it by county and not give information for the whole state. Every single one of those listings might be appropriate on the 67 Wikipedia pages of every county. This page is Demographics of Alabama. I think there is more to the 2020 Census data than just race. And even so, there is no total for the state, only the change between 2000 and 2005? This is a terrible article, truly.
Maybe if I have an hour to kill I'll add up all the county data and just add that. But someone should probably change the 2020 Census data for Alabama. 108.39.196.77 (talk) 21:44, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
