DEMOGRAPHIC TRANSITION
I believe that Saint Kitts and Nevis is in Stage 4 of demographic transition. The NIR, at 0.62%, is quite low, as is characteristic of a Stage 4 country. Another Stage 4 characteristic is that of low CBR (13.3) and CDR (7.1), and both quite close. An additional characteristic of Saint Kitts and Nevis is that of the life expectancy; the country has a life expectancy of 75.7 years, which is almost exactly what a Stage 4 country has. A final characteristic is the population pyramid, which right now is almost identical to a Stage 4 pyramid, and in the near future will look like a Stage 5.
