Number of children dwindling except in OkinawaDate Posted: 2003-05-10 Okinawa is the exception to the trend. While 14.1 percent of the population nationwide are children, 19.3 percent of Okinawa's population is under 20 years of age. The numbers also show that the largest numbers of children are 12 to 14 years of age. The lowest are children of under two years of age. The numbers suggest that the trend is for Japanese couples to have fewer and fewer children in the future. |
