Populační vývoj Česka v roce 2023

Anotace: The article describes demographic development in Czechia during 2023 and sets it in the context of the previous five years. It focuses on both population stock and the main demographic processes, namely fertility, mortality, nuptiality, the divorce rate, and migration. In 2023, the population in Czechia grew but only thanks to international migration. The number of live births decreased significantly for the second year in a row and remained lower than the number of deaths. The fertility and nuptiality rates also declined. Conversely, life expectancy at birth has increased for both men and women and is the highest it has ever been.
