MEDIAN AGE

In 2016, the median age of Morgan Hill residents was 37.3 years, which was higher than the median age in California (35.8 years) and Santa Clara County (37.1 years). The median age statistics confirms that Morgan Hill has a relatively high concentration of children residents (ages 0-14) that is balanced out by the lack of its young adult population (ages 20-34). These figures suggest that there will be a high supply of young children who are potentially in need of sports facilities now and soon, but this concentration could be an anomaly within the Morgan Hill’s population’s age distribution, which is corrected in the next generation.
