What is Demographic momentum?
'''Demographic momentum''' is a common characteristic of growing populations. It states that even after a decline in fertility rates, or the number of babies being born, population will still increase. This is because of a young age distribution, which means that there are a lot of young people who are able to reproduce. ==Other websites== *{{Cite web|last=Grover|first=Drew|date=October 18, 2014|title=Stage 5 of the Demographic Transition Model|url=https://populationeducation.org/stage-5-demographic-transition-model/|access-date=November 1, 2021|website=Population Education|language=en-US}} [[Category:Demography]]
