White female fertility rates in America have plummeted the last 2 years

Fertility Rates Are Dropping And The Age Of New Moms Is Rising Across The US

The total fertility rate in the US is declining — but it’s dropping faster in urban than rural areas, according to a new report.

Across the US, the total fertility rate is decreasing and the average age when women give birth to their first child is increasing — which means women are having fewer children and waiting longer to start a family, if they decide to have children at all. However, there are differences in these measures between rural and urban areas, according to a report from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS).

The total fertility rate — the estimated number of lifetime births per 1,000 women — has been declining for decades and dipped lower last year than it has been since the 1970s. However, this measure has decreased more for some women than others, depending on where they live.

In the report, researchers looked at the differences in fertility rates and maternal age at first birth among women of different racial groups in rural, small/medium metropolitan areas, and large metropolitan counties between 2007 and 2017.

While rural counties saw a decrease of 12% in the total fertility rate, metropolitan counties had a 16–18% drop over the same 10-year period, according to the report. Meanwhile, the average maternal age at first birth was consistently younger in women of all racial groups who lived in rural areas compared with their counterparts who lived in urban areas.

In the last 10 years, these differences have become greater — the gap between women in rural and metropolitan areas widened, Danielle Ely, NCHS statistician and the report’s author, told BuzzFeed News.

Total fertility rate (TFR) is a hypothetical measure based on a snapshot of time. So it can change each year, and it’s influenced by factors like mortality and migration (immigrant women contribute a disproportionate share of the birth rate in the US). TFR is often used to discuss replacement level fertility, or the rate at which women have enough children to replace one generation.

Replacement level fertility can give us an idea about the projected population or workforce size 10 or 20 years down the road. “What we’re seeing in this report is that even rural counties that have the highest fertility rates are still below replacement value rates,” said Ely.

These findings are consistent with previous research. While researchers did not look at the factors to explain why women are waiting longer to have children, one possible factor could be education level, which tends to be higher for urban populations.

“Lower education is associated with higher fertility levels... When people are getting an education or in college, for instance, a lot of times they are not having a child or delaying having a child,” Gretchen Livingston, a senior researcher at Pew Research Center and an expert on fertility and demographics, told BuzzFeed News.

Some surveys and research also suggest that many women are delaying or opting out of childbirth due to factors like student loan debt and a a lack of financial stability.

The rise in the average age of new moms may also be related to the fact that teen births have decreased so dramatically, Livingston said. Simply put, more women in the US are delaying childbirth — for whatever reason.

However, the average age of mothers at first birth is still younger in rural counties for women of all races — with gaps up to about four years. For example, the age at first birth increased in non-Hispanic white women from 27.5 to 29 in metropolitan areas, 25.2 to 26.6 in small/medium metro areas, and 23.7 to 24.9 in rural regions.

“Women are waiting longer to have their first child ... [but] this increase is happening faster for metropolitan counties than rural counties, and that gap is increasing,” Ely said.

This measure is an important indicator — it can be used to determine what services or resources a county will need. “In terms of younger mothers or teen mothers, they tend to have worse birth outcomes than mothers in their twenties or thirties,” Ely said.

Teen births have dramatically decreased.

onehunglo/matt26z are shitting bricks :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

What can I say? I dig the thrill of pregnancy :2 cents: . . .

All the drugs they use.

Shut down the fast food restaurants... :2 cents:

Birth control ...

Its simply due to the increase of abortions. Those aren't taken into account as pregnancies.

You know, that thing that liberated women like to do, which has been culling the liberal/democratic voter base for the past 40 years, which finally resulted in costing Hillary her rightful place in history as first female President of the United States of America?

But yeah, if you're pro-abortion then you're pro-Trump, because abortion put him there. So be happy about that. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

It is called the HPV vaccine, those who receive it have their fertility reduced

Abortion rates have been plummeting in America for decades.

It's says a lot about you that all you have is lies & hate.

IMO crackers like onehunglo and matcz25 should start being really really nice to the other skin colors...

also do not invest in tanning salons :2 cents: it is a declining market :2 cents:

beans/chicken/watermelon/burka making companies etc...buy these stocks and hold :thumbsup

How is this a bad thing? Race and culture are not one and the same. That's alt right type of thinking.

Even if Hondurans account for 99% of the US birthrate for the next 200 years and America turns completely brown, it can still REMAIN AMERICAN.

America is all about VALUES not race... not blood alliances...

Fuck identity politics.

thats what happens when you pull out

You can't be serious. America is what it is today because it was created and built by White Europeans. If the US or Europe never existed do you think there would be internet in Honduras? Ask yourself what the US would look like if White people disappeared tomorrow. What would it look like in 100 years? Fuck it would probably be looted and burned down to the ground in 5 years.

Confirmed racist.

Social engineering

no america is what it is today because you racketeer other countries in to accepting your war dollar...you export your inflation to others and put them in debt with your fake monopoly money and if they do not accept it you destabilize or invade them...you "pay" for their goods and services with basically thin air...

'great america" :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

"white europeans" did the same...exploit the shit out of others and then point from their ivory towers "look savages"....example, india had 25% of the worlds GDP and then white europeans came and invaded and then it had 2%...

I am sure you understand what shits you are :thumbsup

anyway the decadence is getting to you...you are getting fat and lazy...your slippery slope arguments "if whites do not oppress everybody will just go crazy" is hilarious...

Confirmed dead buzzword.

Dude, the people who settled in America were peasants in their home countries / exploited workers / people fleeing persecution. They could have easily turned the US into another SHITHOLE... But AMERICA CHANGED THEM INSTEAD.

This is not a question of RACE.. Remember, IRISH were not considered "white" - there was actually a lot of WHITE FLIGHT when Irish moved into old Anglo neighborhoods in the Northeast. Now, Irish, Italians, and others are part of the "WHITE" cultural designation.

The same process is happening to immigrants. America CHANGES them.

Culture is NOT SEARED into your DNA.

Humans are not DOG BREEDS, dude.
