In Austria, the crude birth rate in 1860 was 36 live births per thousand people, meaning that 3.6 percent of the population had been born in that year. This rate then drops between 1860 and 1935, although it did slightly increase in the 1870s in the early years of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and again after the First World War. Between 1860 and 1935 the crude birth rate fell from 36.1 to 14.4 births per thousand people. This rate then jumped again before and during the Second World War, to 17.7, before falling again in the aftermath of the war. In the 1950s and 1960s, Austria experienced a baby boom, before the birth rate fell to below twelve births per thousand people in the 1980s, and the birth rate has stayed between twelve and nine since then. It is expected that Austria's crude birth rate will be just under ten births per thousand people in 2020.
