Introduction:

Demography is a science of the population. In the contemporary stage of its development, demography has many specialized methods of input data processing, obtained mainly in the governmental statistics system.[1;2]

The results of the demographic analysis show the trends of the demographic development in its different aspects – regarding birth rate, death rate, marriage rate, divorce rate, migrations, etc.[4] The interpretation of those results in connection with the development of other social spheres, the drawing of realistic prognoses, conclusions and recommendations towards the social practice and policy – all this requires the knowledge of the main theories of the population within the society.[5;7]

The development of the demographic science and practice does not stop on the level of demographic analysis, it relates to social problems which in any case comprise the demographic process, the important decisions determining the road of life of each person, form the so called demographic behaviour.[9;11] On the basis of demographic data and computations conclusions about important tendencies in the social development can be drawn, certain socially significant processes can be foreseen and emerging or forthcoming tensions and conflicts can be overcome.[12] The studies in the social sphere, the development of economic projects and larger-scaled undertakings usually start with clarification of the demographic situation.[13]

Objective of the present article is the study of some demographic indices of the population in Plovdiv district.

Materials and methods:

The subject of observation is Plovdiv district. The logical unit is the population of Plovdiv district. The survey is retrospective over a 6-year period from 2010 to 2015 inclusive. Quantitative and qualitative indices have been used for the analysis. The primary information has been derived from the annual reports of the National Statistical Institute, the Ministry of Health and the Regional Health Inspection of Plovdiv. For the statistical processing of the collected primary information the variational, alternative and non-parametric analyses have been used. The computer processing of the collected data base involved the use of the statistical package SPSS version 19 and MicrosoftExcel
