Dear Allstats,
Our research work is about to analyze certain type of diseased patients in different districts for both the sex seperately. For that we usually calculate rates like Crude rate, Age Adjusted Rate, etc., To calculate such rates I require population. I have five year age wise population of Census 1981,1991 and 2001 for each district and sex. I have to estimate population for intercensal period, mid 2001, post censal years.I wanted to know what are the different ways for estimating population from census data? If I use such methods the estimated population will have the real trend as census population. And suggest me some related web-sites to know more about different estimation methods.My sincere thanks to allstats.
