How the indicators relate
- Fertility (TFR) and internet (1990–2017, 24 years): levels are noticeably related, in opposite directions (r = −0.44); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = −0.06).
- Fertility (TFR) and urban share (1960–2023, 64 years): levels are barely related (r = −0.39); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = 0.09).
- Fertility (TFR) and GDP per person (PPP) (1990–2023, 34 years): levels are barely related (r = 0.25); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = 0.29).
Forecasts vs actual
- Fertility (TFR): past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 0 of 1 revisions (2022–2022) and above in 1; median gap +2.1%.
- Fertility (TFR): UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 1.47 (+5% vs 2023), 2100 — 1.53 (+9% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 1.03.
- Births: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 0 of 1 revisions (2022–2022) and above in 1; median gap +11%.
- Births: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 0.4k (−23% vs 2023), 2100 — 0.24k (−54% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 0.08k.
- Population: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 8 of 12 revisions (1998–2022) and above in 4; median gap −1.9%.
- Population: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 56.9k (−12% vs 2023), 2100 — 35.7k (−45% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 23.8k.
UN projections vs actual
Solid line: actual data, UN WPP 2024 estimates to 2023, then national statistics where comparable with the UN. Dashed: medium variants of past UN revisions. The table shows what each revision expected for the latest year (or five-year period) with actual data.
