So what is considered a good birth rate? I would assume over 1 should be fine.
2.1 is maintenance level. Each child has 2 parents, and the .1 accounts for infant deaths, etc.
Depends how you are presenting the number. Over 1 per person is ok, but this is 1.1 per woman. So closer to .5 per person.
Put like that, I can see the issue.
