Austria
DEMOGRAPHY
The demographic history of Austria corresponds to the general
changes that have taken place in other industrial nations, but
with a number of regional and historical differences. An
increasing life expectancy, a declining fertility rate (or a
lower birth rate), and a greater concentration of population in
urban areas are trends Austria shares with other advanced
industrial nations. The cataclysmic events of World War I and
World War II, the substantial population movements--both forced
and voluntary--during the interwar period and after World War II,
the influx of foreign workers starting in the 1960s, and the
opening of Eastern Europe beginning in the late 1980s all
affected the size and structure of Austria's population.
