Total fertility rate

The word total fertility rate is used to describe the total number of children the average women is going to have. The number of children in developing country's can be 7 or more but in developed countries like European countries can only have like 1 child.

Migration patterns of united states:

Every January, Atlas Van Lines makes results of annual Migration Patterns, which shows data on where people moved in 12 months. In 2008 results show that the nation is slowing down because it is having economic problems.The number of overall household moves went down a lot.It went from 92,743 households in 2007 to 84447 in 2008

Homework/classwork

there are more migrants or immigrants than ever before. a better economic means more people will move there because they could find better jobs. 1/3 of the worlds migrants went to Japan, Germany, France, United states, united kingdom, and Canada.20% of migrants live in 20 world cities. migrants move because war, jobs, persecution, and famine. Refugee- a person who flees their country based on race or religion. push forces such as as civil strife or things to get him out of the country. pull is to bring in to a place like better health care and economic opportunity.net migration rate- a statistic that depicts whether more people are entering or leaving the country.

Homework/classwork

population growth rates change over time especially in North America Japan and Europe. Demographers made the demographic transition model which is something that tracts birth and death rates as time goes on. stage 1-tracts birth and death rates. stage 2-death rates go down and birth rates stay high. stage3-people become aware of the advantages of smaller family. stage4-is a predictor of where we can expect population growths we also learned in class that the richer the country is the more people there are going to be. In Russia they are decreasing in population and they have a national holiday to encourage parents to have kids.

Argentina and UK

argentina has Total fertility rate (births per woman) 2.4.Uk has a Total fertility rate (births per woman) 1.7. therefore argentina is a developing contry and the United Kingdom is losing people.

TFR total fertility rate if it is in the shape of the pyramid then the population will go up and it is developing because young people will have kids but if it is not in a pyramid then the population will go down because old people can not have babies. If population is 2.1 then it will go up but if 2.0 it will go down. 3 things that tell if population is going up or down 1. how many people die 2. births 3. immigrants. Life expectancy-how long you are expected to live.

today we were taught how quick this world today hase evolved and how it will evolve in the next 100 years. that is all for now.

Class Notes

• Graphically representing the age and gender distribution of a certain population
• Can be represented by region or country
• Human geographers can determine what the populations across the Globe
• Population pyramids there are male on left female on right old on top young on bottom
• Percentage of population under 15 is 30% in Europe it is only 17% it is 42% in Africa
• life expectancy- is number of years someone is expected to live
1. B has a higher life expectancy because there are older people in it
2. A has a larger young population because there is a bigger bar at the bottom
3. A will be bigger because the young people will get older
