I think you're leaving out one of the biggest. Immigration is the main factor keeping many western nations out of population decline. Japan is fairly xenophobic and not really big on immigration.

The US for instance has an aging population and Americans don't have many kids anymore. Immigrants have bigger families at least for a couple generations and slow the decline.
