Dataset properties:

• Figures: 10 thousand persons (10 Ths. #)
• Adjustment: Not seasonally adjusted (NSA)
• Native frequency: Monthly
• Start date: Between 1996m10 and 2013m10

The series reside in the historical catalog (Japan » Demographics » Population » By age » Monthly) and include, for example:

• VSQPOPT0004UM.IJPN = Both sexes - Ages 0 to 4, (10 Ths. #, NSA)
• VSQPOPT5054UM.IJPN = Ages 50 to 54
• VSQPOPT100GUM.IJPN = Ages 100 and older

For consistency, we have renamed six existing monthly series, as follows. We have not preserved the prior mnemonics as aliases, so subsequent use of legacy retrievals will elicit the "series not found" error.

• VSQPOPTUM.IJPN  » VSQPOPTTUM.IJPN  = Both sexes - All ages
• VSQPOPFUM.IJPN  » VSQPOPFTUM.IJPN  = Female - All ages
• VSQPOPMUM.IJPN  » VSQPOPMTUM.IJPN  = Male - All ages
• VSQPONTUM.IJPN  » VSQPOPTTDUM.IJPN = Both sexes - All ages - Citizen
• VSQPONFTUM.IJPN » VSQPOPFTDUM.IJPN = Female - All ages - Citizen
• VSQPONMTUM.IJPN » VSQPOPMTDUM.IJPN = Male - All ages - Citizen

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.
