Analysis# Bolivia Fertility Rate
Bolivia's fertility rate stands at 2.523 births per woman in 2024, marking the lowest point in the nation's recorded demographic history. This represents a dramatic decline from the 1960 peak of 6.273 births per woman, a decrease of 59.8% over six decades. The current rate places Bolivia below the global average and reflects significant shifts in family planning, female education, and economic development across the country.
The downward trajectory has been remarkably consistent, with each year from 2015 through 2024 showing measurable decline. Bolivia reduced its fertility rate by approximately 0.36 births per woman over this nine-year period alone, indicating sustained momentum toward smaller family sizes. Continued urbanization and improved access to contraception suggest the fertility rate will likely remain on this declining path in coming years.
