The U.S. total fertility rate hit a historic low of 1.6 in 2023 , according to a CDC report.

Fertility rates are a stronger indicator of population patterns over time, experts say.

A $ 5,000 cash bonus, however, will “not budge fertility rates” because “it’s not enough money,” says Karen Benjamin Guzzo .

Singapore offers the equivalent of around $8,500 per child for first- and second -born children.

Germany issues up to $335 in monthly child allowance for qualifying parents.

U.S. families spend up to 16 percent of their income on full-day care for one child, with median annual prices ranging from $6,552 to $ 15,600 in 2022 .

A world population report released by the U.N. in 2024 predicts that the global population is likely to peak at around 10.3 billion people in the mid-2080s .

A smaller global population can lessen the effects of poverty and unsustainable consumption and production, the report says.

Some population experts suggest that smaller populations may be healthier for the world at large.
