China, the world's most populous country, is now facing a population crisis. Since last year, the population of China has started decreasing. China's population has declined for the first time since 1961.

 

China's National Bureau of Statistics said the country would have 1.41175 billion people at the end of 2022, up from 1.41260 billion a year earlier. Last year's birth rate was 6.77 births per 1,000 people, down from 7.52 births in 2021 and the lowest birth rate on record.

 

China recorded its highest death rate since 1976, at 7.37 deaths per 1,000 people, compared to a rate of 7.18 deaths in 2021. Much of the demographic decline is the result of China's one-child policy that it implemented between 1980 and 2015. The sky-high cost of education is what has deterred many Chinese from having more than one child or even having a single child.
