Data sources

Most of the data on this page comes from the Human Fertility Database (website www.humanfertility.org) (data downloaded January 2014, last updated April 2013). The data collected by the Human Fertility Database is based on government data collection by the German government. Details about the modalities of data collection are available here.

Key quantitative metrics

Metric Most recent measurement, along with year and source Extreme values, along with year and source
crude birth rate (CBR) 8.29 (year 2010, based on Human Fertility Database data last updated April 2013) Data available 1956-2010; maximum value 18.14 in 1963, minimum value 8.12 in 2009.
total fertility rate (TFR) 1.394 (year 2010, based on Human Fertility Database data last updated April 2013)
Compare to replacement fertility ~ 2.1		 Data available 1956-2010; maximum value 2.535 in 1964, minimum value 1.243 in 1994.
TFR40 1.349 (year 2010, based on Human Fertility Database data last updated April 2013) Data available 1956-2010; maximum value 2.463 in 1964, minimum value 1.224 in 1994.

Data on period fertility

Data on total indicators only without breakdown by birth order

Year CBR (births per 1000 people per year) CBR minus previous year's CBR TFR (sum of all age-specific fertility rates), ballpark for replacement fertility is 2.1 TFR minus previous year's TFR TFR40 (sum of age-specific fertility rates up to the age of 40), almost equal to TFR because births above the age of 40 are rare TFR40 minus previous year's TFR40
