In 2022, the total fertility rate in the Dominican Republic remained nearly unchanged at around 2.25 children per woman. But still, the fertility rate reached its lowest value of the observation period in 2022. Total fertility rates refer to the average number of children that a woman of childbearing age (generally considered 15 to 44 years) can expect to have throughout her reproductive years. Unlike birth rates, which are based on the actual number of live births in a given population, fertility rates are hypothetical (similar to life expectancy), as they assume that current patterns in age-specific fertility will remain constant throughout a woman's reproductive years.
