Aruba's birth rate was 6.5 in 2025, ranked 202nd globally. This represents a 18.0% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1960–2025.
Overview
Aruba's birth rate stood at 6.5 in 2025, a decline of +1.4 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 6.5 by 2025. Aruba ranked 202nd globally.
Aruba's birth rate has experienced a significant decline over the past 65 years, with the indicator dropping from 32.04 in 1960 to 6.54 in 2025, its lowest recorded level. This trend is consistent with many developed economies, where a combination of factors such as urbanization, increased education, and changing social norms have contributed to lower fertility rates. The 1960 peak in birth rate is a notable outlier among its peer countries, with only Andorra (6.77) exhibiting a higher birth rate in 2025. In contrast, other countries such as Greece (6.54) and Lithuania (6.52) share Aruba's current birth rate. The recent decline in Aruba's birth rate suggests a transition towards a more developed demographic profile, which could have implications for the country's labor market and social security systems. However, a significant increase in birth rates, such as would be triggered by changes in family planning policies or increased economic prosperity, could alter this trajectory.
