The diagram below shows rating of birth and death in Switzerland from 1975 to 2025 based on United Nations statistics.
Overall, birth rates in Switzerland showed a consistent upward trend throughout the period, whereas death rates followed a more soared pattern, eventually declining. Over time, the gap between births and deaths became more noticeable, with births remaining consistently higher than deaths in the later years.
In 1975, the number of deaths stood at around 1 million and showed a gradual increase until 1995. Nevertheless, from that point onwards, it began to decline steadily, reaching a low of approximately 800 thousand by 2025. In contrast, the birth rate followed a different trend. Between 1975 and 1985, the number of births remained relatively stable. From 1995 onwards, it began to rise significantly, climbing from just over 1.2 million to more than 3 million by 2025. This growing disparity between births and deaths indicates a steadily increasing natural population growth over the final decades of the period.
Initially, between 1975 and 1985, the figures for both births and deaths were roughly remained unchanged, with births slightly outnumbering deaths. Nonetheless, the period of that decade demonstrated a little fluctuating. By 1995 death began to decrease, while birth in the contrary steadily increased. This moment became a significant shift, hence definitely subsequent to formulatinga growing disparity between births and deaths over time.
