Population Density
Demographic Statistics
Population
World: 6,284,269,393 US: 289,033,554
Crude Birth Rate (CBR)
# of births/mid-year population (/000)
World = 22 US = 15
Crude Death Rate (CDR)
# of deaths/mid-year population (/000)
World = 9 US = 9
Demographic Statistics
Rate of Increase Natural (RNI)
RNI = CBR CDR (%)
World = 1.3% (+79.3 million/yr) US = 0.6% (+ 1.71 million/yr)
Doubling Time (DT)
# of years for a population to double at a RNI DT = 69.3/RNI
World = 53.3 US = 115.5
Total Fertility Rate (TFR)
Average # of children for each woman in her lifetime

Demographic Statistics
Demographic Transition
Primitive stability Death rate decline due to medicines, reduce childhood mortality Birth rate decline due to social and economic change Modern stability
