The bar chart gives a summary of UN statistics on birth and death rates in Switzerland across the years from 1980 to 2030.
Overall, the number of birth in the country overtook that of death in each year studied, with the exception of 1990. Especially, the gap between the two has widened after the 2010s, as death figures have gone down significantly, a trend which is expected to continue until the end of the period.
Focusing on the first half of the period(1980-2000), 1.2 million people were born initially, compared to 1 million deaths. After a decade, birth rates remained unchanged, but death figures jumped to 1.3 million. The third decade, meanwhile, saw respective rises of 0.5million and 0.2million.
In the latter half of the timeframe, the discrepancy between the fertility and death figures was and is expected to get larger. To be specific, birth rates will reach the chart-high of 3.2 million, while the share of death is going to drop to its lowest point of 0.8 million in the year 2030.
