de Guzman Regional variations in the sex ratio by age group are displayed in Table 3. The variations may be attributed to various factors such as the sex ratio at birth, mortality differentials, and sex-selectivity in migration. For example, the preponderance of males in in-migration streams to Cagayan Valley, Bicol Region, and the two Mindanao regions have resulted in sex ratios well above 1000. It is believed that the disappearance of frontier areas and the easing up of migratory movements have caused a gradual decline in the sex ratios. The slight excess of males in the Eastern Visayas region may be partly due to the larger number of females out-migrating from the area. Table 3.

That the urban areas are predominantly female is depicted in Table 4. In 11 out of 12 regions, the females

Again migration provides the most important reason for the femininity of the urban areas where the growth of service industries and the proliferation of jobs for women have increasingly attracted rural females. In general, the rural areas are male-dominated. Table 4. Sex Ratios by Regional Divisions and by Residence, 1970 Regions I. llocos Region II. Cagayan Valley-Batanes III. Central Luzon IV.

Though there is paucity of data on international migration, reliable sources have shown that immigration or emigration has not reached a magnitude large enough to alter the age structure of the population. The distribution of the population by broad age groups is shown in Table 5. A high level of fertility and a declining mortality level resulted in an increasing proportion of 0-14 year-olds, reported to be a little over 39 per cent in 1903. By 1970, the proportion rose to about 46 per cent. The reverse is true in the broad age groups, 15-64 and 65 years and over. The proportion of
