The stable nuclei are in the pink band known as the belt of stability. They have a neutron/proton ratio between 1:1 and 1.5. As the nucleus gets bigger, the electrostatic repulsions between the protons gets weaker. The nuclear strong force is about 100 times as strong as the electrostatic repulsions.
