A 2024 map of countries by fertility rate. Blue indicates negative fertility rates. Red indicates positive rates. This is a list of all sovereign states and dependencies by total fertility rate (TFR): the expected number of children born per woman in her child-bearing years.
Fertility rate, total (births per woman) ( 1 ) United Nations Population Division. World Population Prospects: 2022 Revision. ( 2 ) Census reports and other statistical publications from national statistical offices, ( 3 ) Eurostat: Demographic Statistics, ( 4 ) United Nations Statistical Division.
At its most basic, fertility rate measures the average number of children that women of childbearing age give birth to in a given country. Fertility rate is closely related to birth rate, which measures the number of live births per 1,000 people in a given country each year.
The huge majority of the world population – 80% — now live in countries with a fertility rate below 3 children per woman. 3 On the other end of the spectrum there are a few countries — home to around 10% of the world population — where women on average have still more than 5 children.
Country Comparisons. Total fertility rate (TFR) compares figures for the average number of children that would be born per woman if all women lived to the end of their childbearing years and bore children according to a given fertility rate at each age.
Birth rate is closely intertwined with total fertility rate, which tracks the average number of c that women in a given country give birth to during their childbearing years. The birth rate varies drastically by country. The average global birth rate was 18.5 births per 1,000 people in 2019, lower than in 2007 and 2012.
