France recorded in 2022 the fewest birth since 1946 (723,000) and one of the highest death rates since there are records, mainly due to the covid pandemic and heatwaves.
National Institute of Statistics France (Insee) posted on Tuesday demographic data 2022, when France’s official population was 68.04 million, just 0.3% more than in 2021.
The second most populous country in the EU – representing 15% of the inhabitants of the community bloc, second only to 19% Germany- Continues to grow but at a slower pace as population growth was 0.4% in 2021 compared to 2020.
As the demographic managers of INSEE said at the press conference, France faces a number of challenges in the short term.
EXCESSIVE DEATH
The head of demographic research, Sylvie Le Minez, highlighted the large number of deaths in 2022 (667,000) and the downward trend. birth rate registered for at least a decade.
“It is estimated that there were 46,000 more deaths in 2022 than expected due to pandemic from COVID-19 and hot flashes,” he said.
This excess deaths even reduced life expectancy France. Compared to 2019 (before coronavirus), it decreased by 0.4 years for both women (85.2 in 2022) and men (79.3 in 2022).
As for the number of births, which at 723,000 was the lowest since 1946 (one year after The Second World War) and 19,000 less than in 2021, there are several factors.
Women put off for various reasons. motherhood (average 31 years for the first child), which affected the birth rate, which in 2022 was 1.8 children per woman. This figure was, for example, 2 in 2015 and 3 in 1946.
This census indicates that the population growth of 0.3% is supported primarily by the migration balance (the difference between those who enter the country and leave the country), which in 2022 was positive and amounted to 161,000 people.
The natural balance that results from the difference between birth D deathswas positive, but amounted to only 56,000.
