What the data shows

Computed with the same code as the observations under the main chart and in the API (get_insights). Moving together in time does not prove a cause.

How the indicators changed

  • Fertility (TFR): 4.60 in 1950 → 3.33 in 2023 (−28%). Peak: 5.48 in 1965; the latest value is 39% lower. The trend broke around 1965 and 1974: +0.07 → −0.18 → −0.01 a year.
  • Births: 0.1k in 1950 → 0.3k in 2023 (×3). Peak: 0.38k in 2015; the latest value is 19% lower. The trend broke around 1976 and 1983: 0k → +0.02k → 0k a year.
  • Population: 3.41k in 1950 → 11.9k in 2023 (×3.5). The trend broke around 1995 and 2009: +0.16k → −0.02k → +0.15k a year.
  • Internet: 0% in 1990 → 83% in 2024 (+83 pp). Thresholds: above 10% since 2011, above 50% since 2011. Fastest growth in 2017–2022: 62.4% → 83.2%.
  • Urban share: 100% in 1960 → 100% in 2025 (0 pp).
  • GDP per person (PPP): 30,127 PPP dollars in 1990 → 12,135 PPP dollars in 2025 (−60%). Low: 6,110 PPP dollars in 2007; +99% since then. The trend broke around 1996 and 2004: −2,615 → −570 → +297 a year.
  • GDP growth: on average 0.1% in the 2000s, 6.8% in the 2010s. Lowest: −22.2% in 2007; highest: 25.3% in 2012.
  • Inflation: on average 11.4% in the 2000s, 2.2% in the 2010s, 2.2% in the 2020s. Lowest: −3.4% in 2011; highest: 22.4% in 2009.
  • Net migration: on average 0.06k a year in the 1950s, 0.12k a year in the 1960s, 0.01k a year in the 1970s, 0.02k a year in the 1980s, −0.15k a year in the 1990s, −0.23k a year in the 2000s, −0.12k a year in the 2010s, −0.16k a year in the 2020s.

What changed at the same time

  • The fastest decline of "Fertility (TFR)" was in 1966–1976: 5.41 → 3.90. Over the same years: births 0.18k → 0.14k; population 6.04k → 7.06k; urban share 100% → 100%; net migration −0.03k a year → 0 a year; life expectancy, men 56.7 years → 56.4 years; no data for the others in those years.
  • Over the last 10 years (2013–2023): fertility (TFR) 4.10 → 3.33; births 0.37k → 0.3k; population 10.5k → 11.9k; internet 83% (2023); urban share 100% → 100%; GDP per person (PPP) 9,800 PPP dollars → 11,859 PPP dollars; GDP growth 3.6% (2013); inflation −1.1% → 4.8%; net migration −0.05k a year → −0.15k a year; life expectancy, men 58 years → 60.3 years.

How the indicators relate

  • Fertility (TFR) and internet: too few common years with data (9) to speak of a relationship.
  • Fertility (TFR) and GDP per person (PPP) (1990–2023, 34 years): levels are barely related (r = 0.37); year-to-year changes show no reliable link (r = 0.26).

Against other countries

  • Fertility (TFR), adjusted for income: countries with the same GDP per person (11,860 PPP dollars) typically have 2.34; here it is 3.33, higher than in 91% of countries at this income (2023, 197 countries).
  • Internet, adjusted for income: countries with the same GDP per person (11,960 PPP dollars) typically have 66.8%; here it is 83%, higher than in 95% of countries at this income (2024, 177 countries).
  • Order of events: urban majority: already in 1960; half the population online: 2011. Fertility fell below 3 after the urban share passed 50% in 69% of 111 countries where the order is known; median gap 9 years. Fertility fell below 2.1 before half the population went online in 88% of 112 countries where the order is known.

Forecasts vs actual

  • Fertility (TFR): past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 1 of 1 revisions (2022–2022) and above in none; median gap −2.7%.
  • The UN 2022 projection expected today's level (3.33, 2023) only by 2025: reality is at least 2 years ahead of it.
  • Fertility (TFR): UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 2.53 (−24% vs 2023), 2100 — 1.97 (−41% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 1.47.
  • Births: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 1 of 1 revisions (2022–2022) and above in none; median gap −9%.
  • The UN 2022 projection expected today's level (0.3k, 2023) only by 2029: reality is at least 6 years ahead of it.
  • Births: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 0.32k (+6% vs 2023), 2100 — 0.28k (−7% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 0.13k.
  • Population: past UN projections. The outcome was below the projection in 5 of 12 revisions (1998–2022) and above in 7; median gap +7.1%.
  • The UN 1998 projection expected this level (11.9k) already around 2001: reality is 22 years behind it.
  • Population: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2050 — 15.8k (+33% vs 2023), 2100 — 20.7k (+74% vs 2023); low variant for 2100: 13.6k.
  • Why the UN missed the population. The 2022 projection for 2023: 12.8k; the UN's 2024 estimate: 11.9k (−7%). Parts of the gap (plus means more people than projected): the starting population −0.8k, births −0.1k, deaths 0 (fewer deaths than expected), migration 0; the largest: the starting population.
  • GDP growth: IMF next-year forecasts (6 editions, 2017–2019). On average the outcome was 4.5 pp above the forecast; below it in 0% of cases; typical error ±4.5 pp. The biggest miss was for 2019: IMF, October 2018 expected −1%, the outcome was 8.5%.
  • GDP growth: latest IMF forecast (IMF, April 2026): 2021 — 7.2%, 2023 — −0.3%, 2031 — 2%.
  • Inflation: IMF next-year forecasts (12 editions, 2017–2022). On average the outcome was 0.4 pp above the forecast; below it in 50% of cases; typical error ±1.4 pp. The biggest miss was for 2023: IMF, April 2022 expected 2%, the outcome was 4.8%.
  • Inflation: latest IMF forecast (IMF, April 2026): 2024 — 9.3%, 2026 — 5.5%, 2031 — 2.5%.
  • Net migration: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2030 — −0.07k a year, 2050 — −0.02k a year, 2100 — −0.01k a year.
  • Life expectancy, men: UN 2024 projection (medium): 2030 — 61.2 years, 2050 — 63.4 years, 2100 — 68.7 years.

UN projections vs actual

Solid line: actual data, UN WPP 2024 estimates; births and fertility from national statistics from the last year they matched the UN estimate (the UN's figures for the latest years are partly its own projection). Dashed: medium variants of past UN revisions. The table shows what each revision expected for the latest year (or five-year period) with actual data.

Nauru: Income share held by lowest 20%2012: 8; 2012: 802468102010

Nauru: Gini index2012: 32.4; 2012: 32.40102030402010

Gini index measures the extent to which the distribution of income (or, in some cases, consumption expenditure) among individuals or households within an economy deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. A Lorenz curve plots the cumulative percentages of total income received against the cumulative number of recipients, starting with the poorest individual or household. The Gini index measures the area between the Lorenz curve and a hypothetical line of absolute equality, expressed as a percentage of the maximum area under the line. Thus a Gini index of 0 represents perfect equality, while an index of 100 implies perfect inequality.
