The death rate in Kazakhstan decreased to 6.71 deaths per 1,000 inhabitants compared to the previous year. Therefore, the death rate in Kazakhstan saw its lowest number in that year with 6.71 deaths per 1,000 inhabitants. The crude death rate is the annual number of deaths in a given population, expressed per 1,000 people. When looked at in unison with the crude birth rate, the rate of natural increase can be determined.Find more statistics on other topics about Kazakhstan with key insights such as total life expectancy at birth, infant mortality rate, and total fertility rate.

The total fertility rate in Kazakhstan saw no significant changes in 2023 in comparison to the previous year 2022 and remained at around 3.01 children per woman. Still, 2023 marked the second consecutive decline of the fertility rate. The total fertility rate is the average number of children that a woman of childbearing age (generally considered 15 to 44 years) is expected 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 estimates (similar to life expectancy) that apply to a hypothetical woman, as they assume that current patterns in age-specific fertility will remain constant throughout her reproductive years.Find more statistics on other topics about Kazakhstan with key insights such as infant mortality rate, total life expectancy at birth, and death rate.

WorldPop produces different types of gridded population count datasets, depending on the methods used and end application. An overview of the data can be found in Tatem et al, and a description of the modelling methods used found in Stevens et al. The 'Global per country 2000-2020' datasets represent the outputs from a project focused on construction of consistent 100m resolution population count datasets for all countries of the World for each year 2000-2020. These efforts necessarily involved some shortcuts for consistency. The 'individual countries' datasets represent older efforts to map populations for each country separately, using a set of tailored geospatial inputs and differing methods and time periods. The 'whole continent' datasets are mosaics of the individual countries datasets
