“…In contrast, counties with a small proportion of women of childbearing age may fail to produce sufficient births to offset deaths among an aging population (Beale 1969; Johnson 2011; Johnson et al. 2015). Given these patterns in the overall population, we expect counties with relatively few white women of childbearing age to be at greater risk of natural decrease.…”

“…White deaths exceeded births in 75 percent of these population loss counties. Long‐term natural decrease eventually drains the demographic resilience from an area, producing protracted and substantial population loss (Johnson, Field, and Poston 2015). Nearly 24 percent of US counties are now experiencing such depopulation and natural decrease (largely white) plays a significant role in it (Johnson and Lichter 2019; Johnson 2011).…”

This research is the first to examine the prevalence and dynamics of non‐Hispanic white natural decrease in fine scale subregional units of the United States. In 2015, more non‐Hispanic Whites died than were born in 65 percent of the US counties. This is the highest incidence of non‐Hispanic white natural decrease ever reported. It results from a complex interaction among fertility, mortality, and migration over a protracted period. Spatial regression is used to identify three critical variables (over‐65 population, child–women ratio, and women of childbearing age) that are the immediate demographic causes of this natural decrease. The timely, factual information in this paper provides a demographic context for analysis of the social, political, and policy implications of this emergent demographic phenomenon.

“…As a result, the society is evidently ageing and this leads to changes in travel behaviours. Unfortunately, the ageing process -in the long run -will cause a substantial decrease in the population number, which is already observed in Polish and European cities [5].…”

Summary. This paper presents the results of analyses of the influence of changes in spatial management on changes in the emissions of selected harmful chemicals and road traffic noise. The analyses were carried out for different scenarios of urban development: from a compact city with densely developed areas and a higher residential density to a diffuse city, where residents live in suburban areas with good quality of air, but have to spend a lot of time commuting to work and school. The results of traffic modelling analyses considering transport needs of a specific urban area enabled the determination of possible effects of a spatial planning policy on the residents' standard of living and the influence of the policy on natural environment. The article ends with conclusions and recommendations for planning the development of a city's spatial management from the point of view of the transport needs of its residents and the impact of their everyday trips on the environment.

This entry discusses the definition of demography and the meaning of “population.” It examines some of the early writings about population, paying particular attention to the work and contributions of Malthus, but also considering other population theorists. It covers the major theory of demography, demographic transition theory, that was developed by demographers to help our understanding of overall population change that societies experience as they transitioned from high fertility and mortality rates to low fertility and mortality rates. This theory has been revised into extensions involving the second and third demographic transitions.
