Data for 1992

Crude Birth Rate, 1992

1992, as UN DESA Population Division’s 2024 release gives it · stored as published, never rewritten

The crude birth rate is the number of babies born alive in a year for every 1,000 people living in a country. It is the simplest measure of how many births a population produces, and it is "crude" because it takes no account of how many of those people are of an age to have children.

Crude Birth Rate, 1992 covers 222 countries. Niger is highest, at 54.524; Vatican City is lowest, at 5.918. The middle country reads 26.588. Against 1991, 222 values changed (39 up, 183 down), the same countries are covered.
