The present investigation aims to examine the geographical analysis of the correlation between female literacy and the juvenile sex ratio in Nashik district. The study is primarily based on secondary data collected from Nashik district's 2011 population census handbooks. The present paper is a major analysis of the female literacy rate, the juvenile sex ratio pattern, and its correlation with the study region. This research paper applies the literacy rate method, the juvenile sex ratio method, and the Pearson correlation coefficient technique. Nashik, Malegaon, Niphad, Yeola, and Deola tehsils showed high female literacy. In Dindori, Igatpuri, Baglan, Chandwad, Nandgoan, and Sinnar tehsils, there is moderate female literacy, while in highly concentrated tribal populations such as Surgana, Peint, Triembek, and Kalwan tehsils, there is low female literacy. Generally, developed regions exhibit high female literacy rates, while less developed regions, particularly tribal regions, display low female literacy rates. Only three tahsils, namely Peint, Trimbakshwar, and Surgana, exhibited a high juvenile sex ratio. Kalwan, Malegaon, Chandwad, Yeola, Baglan, Sinner, and Nandgaon had a moderate juvenile sex ratio, while Baglan, Chnadwad, Deola, Nandgaon, Niphad, Nashik, and Sinnar tehsil had the lowest. Tribal regions generally have the highest juvenile sex ratio, while urban areas have the lowest. The correlation analysis reveals a strong negative relationship between the female literacy rate and the juvenile sex ratio. Therefore, we can conclude that there is no significant relationship between the female literacy rate and the juvenile sex ratio level, and variations in the female literacy rate do not influence the juvenile sex ratio in the study region. The present paper gives a geographical analysis of the correlation between female literacy and the juvenile sex ratio in Nashik district.
