Population change in cities (Bar Chart)

The bar chart shows us the population changes in nine cities from 1950 to 2015.

It’s clear from the chart that the two largest population cities in 1950 were New York at about 12 million and London with 8 million people. 20 years later Tokyo and New York had the largest populations at about 16 million in either city. After this, in 2000 the chart shows us a great increase in some cities such as Mexico City, Lagos, Bombay and Tokyo. In 2015 Tokyo’s population will not have changed since 2000 but it still be one of the two population centers along with Bombay. Both will be about 26 millions. In the whole chart we see that New York City gets the least increase in population. It also shows us that London got a small decrease over all the years.

In conclusion, the cities with the largest population in 1950 get have smallest populations in 2015, and some cities with small populations in 1950 will have the largest populations in 2015.
