Crude birth rate refers to the number of births over a given period divided by the person-years lived by the population over that period. It is expressed as number of births per 1,000 population. The article lists 233 countries and territories in crude birth rate. The first list is provided by Population Reference Bureau. [1]
Replacement fertility is the total fertility rate at which women give birth to enough babies to sustain population levels, assuming that mortality rates remain constant and net migration is zero. [8] If replacement level fertility is sustained over a sufficiently long period, each generation will exactly replace itself. [8]
Natality is shown as a crude birth rate or specific birth rate. Crude birth rate is used when calculating population size (number of births per 1000 population/year), whereas specific birth rate is used relative to a specific criterion such as age. By calculating specific birth rate, the results are seen in an age-specific schedule of births.
The national fertility rate — calculated as the total number of live births per 1,000 women of reproductive age — has been declining steadily in the United States over the past decade, from 62 ...
A 2023 map of countries by fertility rate. Blue indicates negative fertility rates. Red indicates positive rates. The total fertility rate (TFR) of a population is the average number of children that are born to a woman over her lifetime, if they were to experience the exact current age-specific fertility rates (ASFRs) through their lifetime, and they were to live from birth until the end of ...
The other aberration from this otherwise-steady decline in teen birth rates is the six percent decrease in birth rates for 15- to 19-year-olds between 2008 and 2009. [65] Despite the decrease, U.S. teen birth rates remain higher than those in other developed nations. [ 65 ]
As of 2009, the average birth rate (unclear whether this is the weighted average rate per country [with each country getting a weight of 1], or the unweighted average of the entire world population) for the whole world is 19.95 per year per 1000 total population, a 0.48% decline from 2003's world birth rate of 20.43 per 1000 total population.
Rates are the average annual number of births or deaths during a year per 1,000 persons; these are also known as crude birth or death rates. Column four is from the UN Population Division [3] and shows a projection for the average natural increase rate for the time period shown using the medium fertility variant. Blank cells in column four ...
