Birth rates are inversely proportional to the quality of life in a country. There are higher birth rates in poorer countries.

That's because in poorer countries kids are extra hands to work, but in industrialized countries it became really hard to have kids even for people that want them, because they live from paycheck to paycheck.

Don't forget easier access to contraceptives, sex ed, and other forms of entertainment beyond sex. Netflix and chill is a lot more likely to turn into "No, wait, this show is actually really good" than "I've got a bucket of chicken. Wanna do it?" is to turn into "No, wait, this chicken is actually really good, let's not have sex."

Less accidental pregnancy, especially among teenagers, is a huge deal when it comes to the birth rate slowing down. As is people wanting a smaller family size and waiting to have a kid until they're ready.
