The line graph illustrates how much birth rates in the US and China changed for 8 decades (from 1920 to 2000)
Overall, the birth rates of both countries showed a marked decrease over that period. Birth rate in the US reached a peak in 1950 at 15% and came to a trough in 1945 at approximately 5% while birth rate in China also peaked in 1950 at 20%, it didn’t reach its lowest point until 1980. In general, the average birth rate in the US is higher than in China.
In terms of birth rate in the US, it remained more or less stable from 1920 to 1940, then plummeted in 1945. It began a steady decline shortly after bouncing back in 1950 from under 5% to 15%.
Similarly, birth rate in China started somewhat at same as the US at first, but then started to fluctuate dramatically from 1930 to 1955. Ultimately, from the beginning of 1955, it followed a similar pattern to gradually decrease from about 10% at the start to around 2% in 2002.
