China’s Population Trend

Total Population(Billion) Birth Rate(‰) Natural Growth Rate(‰)

China’s population grew to 1.37 billion in 2015 in spite of lower birth rate and slower natural

population growth. China’s population and birth rate was expected to rise in the next few years,

because the government liberalized the Two-Children Policy in 2015.
