Rural communities in Wisconsin, like rural communities throughout the United States, have a demographic curve which contrasts sharply with that of urban areas. Relative to urban areas, rural areas generally have more children and young people, fewer people in the working age range (18 to 64), and more elderly people. In general, the degree of contrast varies directly with physical distance from urban centers, with the demographic curve of remote communities contrasting most markedly with that of urban centers. As a single index of demographic variation, median age generally reflects the demographic curves involved, with median age declining as territorial distance from urban centers increases
