The country’s total fertility rate dropped to a record low of 0.7 in the second quarter of 2023.
SEOUL: More than half of the regions in South Korea are at risk of experiencing a complete population decline, data showed today, amid the country’s critically low birth rate.
The population risk index is calculated by dividing the number of females aged 20 to 39 by the population of those aged 65 and above. A region is classified as a risk-prone area when it falls below 0.5. Kim added the decline of regional communities will eventually hurt the country’s economic competitiveness, emphasising the importance of creating jobs in such regions to prevent an outflow of the population.
Meanwhile, only 18,615 babies were born in June, down 1.6% from a year earlier to hit another fresh low, a monthly report from Statistics Korea showed last month.
