About this ranking
Live births minus deaths during the year. A negative value means more deaths than births (Eurostat).
Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the areas are compared on one definition. 5 areas with data in other periods have no value for 2019 and are left out rather than filled from another source. Equal values share a rank.
