The nation of Turkey is Stage 4 of The Demographic Transition Model. This can be inferred because the birth rate is declining. Also, the number of elderly population in the country is increasing which means that the death rate is decreasing. Not only this but the life expectancy is high at 74.8 years. The population growth rate is becoming stable at less than 1% which also supports that the country is in stage 4. As the years progress the population pyramids are becoming more column shaped which shows that the elderly population is increasing and birth rates are decreasing.
