Causes of Slower Growth
Population change is driven by two forces—migration and natural increase (more births than deaths)—and both of these factors are contributing to slower growth in the state
- Before about 1800 human birth rates were high, but death rates were also high, so population growth was very slow. After 1800 medicine slowly improved, so the death rate dropped but birth rate was still high, so many populations grew rapidly.
