200

The main characteristics of the third stage of the DTM, what is happening to CBR, CDR, and population growth?

Declining Birth Rates, Declining Death Rates, Population growth begins to slow.

200
Concave sides on a population pyramid will tell you this about a country….
That there is a high death rate
200

Large portions of people retire in this region of Florida

400
Having a high rate of this means there is a large portion of children younger than 1 dying due to illness, disease or hunger.
Infant mortality
400

Stage 1
500

This is why populations will continue to grow for a generation or two even after birth rates and death rates drop.

Demographic momentum 

500

Countries in stage 5 of the DTM, typically implement these types of population policies

expansive or pro-natalist 

500

Give 2 reasons death rate is falling rapidly in stage 2

Improvements in medical care, water quality and sanitation improvements, less children dying

500

This is the way you calculate a countries natural increase rate 

CBR - CDR

500

Provide two of Ravenstein's Laws of Migration

1.Most migrants move a short distance

2.Most migrants that do move farther favor urban areas*

3.Migration occurs in steps

4.Most migration is rural to urban

5.Economic factors are the main reasons people move

6.Each migration creates a counter migration*

7.Most migrants are young single adults
