Rates per 1,000 people per year — not absolute birth or death counts. When the birth rate exceeds the death rate, natural increase is positive (before migration).

OECD definition: unemployed share of the labour force among native-born vs foreign-born residents aged 15–64. National offices (e.g. Statistics Sweden) may publish slightly different figures for other age bands or months — we show the internationally comparable OECD series. Latest: native-born 4.1%, foreign-born 4.3% (2024).

Age structure, projections, and population composition.
That is 8% smaller than in 2025. The animation freezes the latest fertility rate. It is a model, not an official forecast. UN World Population Prospects 2024 medium is 421 million in 2100 — higher than this run (low 308 million, high 566 million). UN lets fertility change over the century and includes some migration; this run does not.

Source & definition: Live births by mother's nativity (Pew Research Center analysis of CDC/NCHS natality data). 'Foreign-born' = mother born outside the United States.
Each country's statistical office defines “migrant background” differently (mother's citizenship, country of birth, or parents' origin), so figures are not directly comparable across countries and may be out of date. Always check the cited source for the latest official numbers.

Pre-1960 life expectancy and long child-mortality series are from Our World in Data (Riley, Zijdeman et al., HMD, UN). Historic crude death rates cover countries in the Human Mortality Database only — Sweden from 1751, France from 1816, and so on. Crude rates are not age-standardized. See also the mortality explorer.
Spending, capacity and attainment. Coverage is thinner than for demographic series — most figures come from periodic surveys rather than continuous registration.

Sentenced prisoners (sentence > 1 year) under state or federal jurisdiction, by race and Hispanic origin. White and Black are non-Hispanic. Counts rounded to nearest 100 for race/ethnicity. Remaining “other/two or more races” are in the BJS total but not shown as a separate series here.

Arrests reported to the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program by race (Table 43). Race categories are not mutually exclusive with Hispanic ethnicity — Hispanic arrestees are included in the race categories (mostly White). Agency coverage varies by year; absolute counts are not a full national census of all arrests.

Arrests for murder and nonnegligent manslaughter by race (FBI UCR Table 43). Same race/ethnicity caveats as total arrests.

Age structure, fertility gaps, and migration change budgets and electorates. This is the constraint, not a manifesto.
U.S. fertility is below replacement; the population is shifting by race and Hispanic origin, and Social Security math is an age-structure story.
The longer argument — pensions, schools, coalitions, and what migration does and does not offset — is on why birthrates matter. To turn this country’s series into a memo you can forward, open the briefing builder — generate a draft, write it yourself, then expand any paragraph.
