Greece: Continuous decrease in the number of children born
The natural balances (births-deaths) in Greece have changed, turning from positive to negative for the first time in our post-war history, essentially since 2010. The continued increase in the number of elderly has caused a increase in deaths that began in the early 1950s, while the continued decline in the number of children couples have had has caused a decline in births since 1980.
