Links between economic development and population
• The higher the level of economy…• The greater the income levels• The more money can be raised from tax• So more can be spent on society• Which leads to better education and
health care• Which affects the BR, DR and LE….

What about economic activities?
• Type of economic activity?• Agriculture – how will this affect BR?• Industry & Manufacturing – what kind of population does this require?• Services _ what might this indicate about

So, do economic activities influence population?
