State & County Birth Trends
A combination of factors accounts for this change. While the economic downturn may play some role, other factors at work may be more dominant including the size of the childbearing cohort and childbearing propensity for some age groups in some areas. This section provides an interactive ranking table to examine how births are changing by state and county annually from 2006 to 2009. The most recent birth and population estimates data became available in March 2010. See the data in context of trends and related measures at http://proximityone.com/srdmi/us00.htm.
