Poland sees a decrease in the number of births
The fertility rate in Poland has been on a downward trend for the past six decades. In 2022, as many as 68 percent of women in Poland were not planning to have a child. The main reason for that was that Polish women found their pay insufficient. Contrary to the decline in the fertility rate, the cost of raising children in Poland has been increasing yearly. The cost of raising two children in 2021 amounted to almost 440 thousand zloty.
