If the birth rate is too low, the population will progressively become older and older with fewer young people there to support them
Once all the old people did which will be soon then the issue solves itself. Then maintaining a manageable population will be easy.
The thing about old people is that young people turn into them
Oh dang.
So what is considered a good birth rate? I would assume over 1 should be fine.
Depends how you are presenting the number. Over 1 per person is ok, but this is 1.1 per woman. So closer to .5 per person.
Put like that, I can see the issue.
2.1 is maintenance level. Each child has 2 parents, and the .1 accounts for infant deaths, etc.
