This is correct!
According to data collected from 2024, the total fertility rate in the United States is approximately 1.6 births per woman while China's is approximately 1.2 births per woman.
Both nations currently sit below the replacement rate of 2.1 births per woman needed to sustain a population for numerous factors. In the case of both countries, it can come down to numerous factors such as the increased cost of living in both countries. In China, this increased cost as well as the now defunct One Child policy from many years ago severely lowered the number of children born per year.
