- Fertility rates for white women were low in every US state in 2017, but up in 12 states for black women and up in 29 states for Hispanic women
- The total fertility rate for the US was 16 percent below the level of a population to replace itself
- It was only higher than what is needed in two states: South Dakota and Utah
- Experts say the reasons are likely due to South Dakota's growth in the energy sector and Utah's large Mormon population
Fertility rates for white women were down in every US state in 2017 - below the rate needed for the population to replace itself, a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reveals.
However, among black and Hispanic women, fertility rates were up in 12 and 29 states, respectively.
When researchers looked at fertility rates for women of all age groups and races, they found that the nationwide rate was 16 percent lower than what is considered the level for a population to replace itself.
Experts say this is likely due to the fact that the large proportion of native-born women are having fewer children than before, while the much smaller proportion of immigrant-born women are having more children....
The overall fertility rate was only above the level in two states: South Dakota (with a boom in jobs for white Americans in the energy industry) and Utah (home to a high concentration of Mormons)....
Meanwhile, black women had a rate higher than the population replacement level in 12 states and Hispanic women had a rate that was higher in 29 states.
However across all age groups and races, the total fertility rate for the US in 2017 was 1,765.5 per 1,000 women - 16 percent below the level of a population to replace itself.
There were only two states that had rates above the population level, South Dakota and Utah.
For Utah, the answer as to why is easy: its Mormon population. ...
Mormons between ages 40 and 59 had an average of 3.4 children in their lifetime, compared to the national average of 2.1 among all Americans in that age range....

Even without immigration from Central America, Hispanics will be an increasing portion of America's population.
Anecdotally, Progressive women's numbers are shrinking even more than those of whites. They study longer; marry later; have higher student debt; and begin having children later, if at all. They are a mainstay of support for the Democratic Party, and they are shrinking in number.
It is the red states versus the blue states. Fertility in rural states – mainstays of the Republican Party – is higher than in blue states.
Pelosi and Schumer are in a fight for their party's life. Only by allowing unfettered immigration of Hispanics can their party avoid being eclipsed.
CAIRCO Notes
Insanity abounds. Economists and Chamber of Commerce growth mongers want never-ending growth fueled by mass immigration. American's don't. Instead, they want community, quality of life, and freedom from crime.
Mass immigration is driving America's population to double within the lifetimes of children born today.
Mass immigration and fertility of recent migrants is driving the replacement of native-born Americans by foreign immigrants and illegal alien invaders.
The Democrat party knows that by espousing open borders, an endless stream of immigrants and illegal aliens will flood into America. They and their descentants will ultimately vote for the party that gives them the most freebies at taxpayer expense - that is, the Democrat party.
