The crude birth rate in France is approximately 9.5 births per 1,000 people , which is below the global average of 16.1 per 1,000. The total fertility rate stands at 1.64 children per woman. Since this is below the replacement level of 2.1, the population of France would decline over the long term without net immigration.
