Hungarian population in severe decline? – Latest population statistics
The rate of natural decline in the population decreased by 17 percent in August, with the number of births increasing by 0.4 percent and deaths decreasing by 2.7 percent compared with the previous year, the Central Statistical Office (KSH) said on Thursday.
In the period, 8,178 children were born, 36 more than in August in the previous year, while 9,678 people died, 271 fewer than in the same period in 2020.
The number of marriages fell, with 9,249 couples tying the knot, 12 percent less than in the same period in 2020. KSH noted, however, that there was one weekend less in August this year than in the same month of last year.
Number of suicides dramatically increased in Hungary!
In the Jan-Aug period, there were 60,620 births, down 533, or 0.9 percent, from the same period a year earlier. The number of deaths was 100,591, 16,070 (19 percent) more than in Jan-August 2020.
The rise in deaths and the drop in the birth rate means that the rate of natural population decline was up by 71 percent compared with the same period last year, KSH said.

We are an Ageing Population.
“Increase our birth rate or we may shall perish” – words from the mouth of Prime Minister – Victor Orban 2019.
Population which the effects of this ongoing Novel coronavirus come muchly into when we discuss Population, the trend continues – deaths per year of Hungarians outnumbers new born babies which continues to contribute and highlights – we are an Ageing Population.
The present Government – introduction of ideas Policies – they have had say 10 years – to try and revitalize, stimulate, build,
re-energize, re-nourish, regenerate, strengthen – breath new life into – the growing of the Hungarian Population, has been a cataclysmic disaster.
Immigration Policies of the present Government, receive overall a tick in my Political position but the question or arguements built on and around Immigration in Hungary – is far removed from why we are in this continueing downward trend in Population that adds to us being an Ageing Population.
Are we at a stage in Hungary that this “sickening” trend is nonreversible ?
The on-going Youth Drain – pulling the “guts” out of the Hungarian population.
This – Youth Drain – from youth – those nearing graduation and those who have Graduated after years of Acadenmic and “other” recognized fields of Study – people from “All Stations in Life” – why is there this growing – persistant in pattern – of the 10 years trend – that the present Government – has not CONTROLLED – stemmed nor Slowed it Down – momentum of Citizens of Hungary – Movement ???
Why is it being IGNORED – that the Future – an ongoing, as – History proves and Tells us – the major intracal role – in the foundations mechanisms of operation of a country – represented in a Major catagory of a population structure or tiered structure – that is and must be, relieant on its Youth – the stages in there lives they progross that adds to the foundations and solidness of a countrys Functionality and its – FUTURE.
The up-coming National Elections – May 2022 – the OPPORTUNITY – free invitation under Democracy to Civilians – to Speak through the POWER your Vote – to the Future of Hungary.
We ALL should take TIME – asking WHY – is our POPULATION – in a “sickening” decline pattern ?
Robert H. Jacksons quote :
“It is not the Function of Government to keep the Citizens from Falling into Error:
It is the Function of the Citizens to keep the Government from Falling into Error.”
Hungary – the Mechanics or Chemistry – Political Ideas and Philsophy – the “creed” of the present Government/Fidesz Party – is WRONG – and we must see an URGENT cessation – to this Population number Decline.
