Natural population change is the difference between the number of live births and the number of deaths occurring in a given population over a specific period. It is typically calculated per 1,000 people.
The formula for calculating natural population change is Birth Rate minus Death Rate. A positive result indicates natural increase, while a negative result indicates natural decrease.
