Growth Rate

Economy

Areas with a high proportion of employed females may have a lower population growth rate.

A strong economy provides more job and education opportunities, reducing the need for large families.

Economic stability can affect family size preferences.

Population Demographics

Nations with a higher percentage of elderly individuals may experience slower growth, like Japan.

Countries with a higher percentage of people aged 15 to 45 tend to grow faster.

The age distribution in a population influences its growth rate.

Healthcare

Improved healthcare can increase the overall growth rate by ensuring more children survive into adulthood.

Access to hospitals, doctors, and health services influences child survival rates.

Education

Women who marry later tend to have fewer children, contributing to a lower birth rate.

Increasing education levels, especially for women, correlates with a rise in the average marriage age.

Social Attitudes

Societies where large families are common may experience higher population growth.

Cultural norms regarding family size impact population growth.
