According to Wikipedia, Georgia’s 2015 fertility rate was 1.82, which is higher than most European countries. If they can affect birth choices now, before the population ages further, they might turn things around. I wish them the best!

I wonder what birthrates are like among Georgian expatriates. Many expats from places I wouldn’t want to live - including Russia, Poland, and Mexico - have significantly higher birthrates than those who remain in the Old Country.

In my neighborhood, the only family as big as ours are Ukrainian Evangelicals. They have ten children (not all at home any more) as well as both sets of grandparents. They bought two houses side-by-side! So did the Eritreans, who arrived with an extended family, but as they’ve prospered, adult children have moved to other areas.
