Census Illustrates How Immigration Helps Avert US Population Decline

The population of the United States is growing slower now than at any other time in history.

Part of this is due to the nearly 1 million deaths from COVID-19.  Also, birth rates are at their lowest in decades, as more people opt to have few or now children, or have those children later in life. Left unabated, this demographic trend could result in too few workers supporting too many retirees.

Immigration can help to stem the tide of low population growth, or even decline.
