This graph shows the variation in birth rate over the years from 1980 until 1999, separated by age group. The birth rate of year olds stays pretty much the same, while that of is ever increasing, and the birth rate of year olds goes up around 1992 but then lessens once again. The birth rate of women aged increases slightly as well. The birth rate of women age and are so small to see significant change. Louis Licamele

The birth rate of women under 20 who are of different races is shown over the last decade. Some obvious differences among and within races can be seen. The birth rate among Asian women under 20 is very small, followed next by White women. The birth rate of Black and Hispanic women are the largest. The birth rate of Black women, which was the largest in the beginning of the decade, has decreased the fastest and has put the birth rate of Hispanic women as the largest towards the end of the decade. The general pattern is that the birth rate in all women under 20 has decreased regardless of race. Louis Licamele

Here we can see how the birth rate of women who are age 30 to 54 has changed based on their race over the last decade. The birth rate of Asian women, which was the lowest for under age 20, is now the highest. The birth rate of American Indian and Black women remains rather constant and not that high. Once again the birth rate of Hispanic women is high, as it was for Hispanic women under 20. One distinct anomaly is the sharp increase in birth rates among White women in this age group. One would have to wonder something such as fertility drugs might be playing a role in this change.
