Recession linked to U S births drop in 2008
AP report shows U S births fell about 2 percent in 2008, the first annual decline since the decade began, with about 4,247,000 births nationwide. Experts cite economic downturn and housing crisis as key factors, noting California and Florida had the steepest declines. Immigration trends may also contribute, while January to April 2008 saw increases.
