In 2024, approximately 118,000 births and 156,000 deaths of the total resident population were registered in Shanghai municipality in China. Despite the gradual relaxation of the one-child policy and its final abolition in 2016, the number of births in China did not increase sustainably. The birth rate in Shanghai declined considerably in recent years, while the death rate is increasing gradually and will further grow in the future due to the aging of the society.
