At times, there are doubts about the ability to provide enough food. Most of these groups (except the Ukrainians, Belarusians, Germans, Kazakhs, Armenians, and Azerbaijanis) have their own ethnic autonomous republics, 21 of which are incorporated into the Russian Federation. Understandably, due to these high rates of alcoholism and economic hardship, women feel less than encouraged to have children in Russia. This is the case even in prosperous Estonia. Russia, Latvia, and Moldova were at –0.3%; Lithuania at –0.2%; and Moldova at –0.1%. Russia is the largest country in the world by area, but it ranked only 9th largest worldwide by population in 2009, with 142 million people—right after Nigeria with 153 million, but ahead of Japan with 128 million. Of the two North American countries, Russia resembles Canada much more than it does the United States in terms of its population distribution. At that time, about 50 million lived in Ukraine. This means that most mothers have only one child, while some have none at all, and very few have two children or more (Vignette 10.1). However, even a cursory look at Figure 10.5 reveals that this is not the case. These figures are very similar to the corresponding U.S. statistics. Many of the same factors as in Russia play a role in these republics as well: low fertility among urban women, and high male mortality (especially among middle-aged men) due to alcoholism, depression, accidents, homicides, and suicides. A fertility level of about 2.1 is called the “replacement level.” (Think: Why is it 2.1, if there are two parents? However, no money will be given away at birth—it will be placed in some savings trust as a “mother's capital” to be cashed in later for a mortgage down payment or a child's education—so the overall impact of this legislation is likely to be insignificant. 1960-2019 Data | 2020-2022 Forecast | Historical | Chart | News. In postindustrial societies both parents typically work, and additional children provide no economic benefit to a family, as they do in primarily agrarian societies. More than half chose the United States, Canada, Israel, or Australia as their new home rather than Europe. Between the two censuses, five units in these areas—Chukotka, Kamchatka, Yakutia, and two autonomous okrugs (now part of Krasnoyarsky Kray)—lost between 15 and 60% of their population. The maintenance of these dachas has created a secondary type of suburbanization/deurbanization that has slowed the typical deurbanization seen in developing countries. The estimated 2014 population of Russia, which was 142.5 million, was pretty interesting, as Russia released its latest batch of data, as reported by Forbes. The primary causes of Russia's population decrease and loss of about 700,000 to 800,000 citizens each year are related to a high death rate, low birth rate, high rate of abortions, and a low level of immigration. Thus emigration is low, immigration is high, and only two other factors remain to account for the decline: a drop in fertility and an increase in mortality.

Today Ukraine and Uzbekistan still have the second and third largest populations in the FSU, while Estonia has the smallest. While Russia a multi-faith nation, the vast majority of the population practice Orthodox Christianity (75%). Indeed, Russia's elite prefers to have these types of medical procedures done in clinics in Switzerland and Germany, just to be safe. Particularly worrisome are the very high rates of drinking as well as drug use among early teens, estimated in some communities at 20–30% for drinking and 5% for drug use among children as young as 14. In Moldova and Tajikistan, on the other hand, emigration greatly exceeds immigration. The hope is that this will increase the birth rate. However, recent studies have shown that Russia may be emptying from within, with more of the population choosing to “de-urbanize” and move to the countryside. With a current growth rate of -0.05%, it’s predicted that Russia’s population will drop to around 132 million by 2050—a decrease of almost 12 million people. The biggest of those is Norilsk with a population of over 300,000, located at 70?N—well above the Arctic Circle! The retirement age for Russia's women remains 55, but there are proposals now to raise this age for both sexes.) For example, Ukraine was created in the areas where Ukrainians primarily lived, Uzbekistan for the Uzbeks, Georgia for the Georgians, and so on. Much of that loss (about 80%) was due to domestic migration to warmer regions of Russia, primarily to the central European part and the Caucasus. Russia's total fertility rate is low at 1.6 births per woman; the number represents the number of children each Russian woman has during her lifetime. This difference is primarily a result of high rates of alcoholism among males. Only 1.5 million Russian citizens thus far have left for permanent life abroad since 1992. For comparison, the entire world's fertility rate is 2.4; the U.S.'s rate is 1.8.
