Family sizes have dramatically decreased over time due to urbanization, education, and economic shifts. In the 1800s, U.S. families averaged seven children, driven by agricultural needs and high infant mortality, per the U.S. Census Bureau. Today, the average is 1.9 children, reflecting smaller urban households and access to contraception. In contrast, developing nations like Niger maintain larger families (6-7 children), tied to economic reliance on children for labor and cultural values favoring large kinship networks, illustrating global diversity in family planning.
