If young people are leaving a village for work, what effect can it have on local population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Local growth may decrease

The direct answer is A: local population growth may decrease. When young people leave a village, the area experiences out-migration. This immediately removes people from the local population and may reduce the number of adults who could form households and have children there. Therefore, both the current population and possible future growth may become lower. A is correct because out-migration can reduce local population increase, although the exact result depends on births, deaths and return migration. B is wrong because leaving does not necessarily speed up growth. C is wrong because the departure of young people does not always raise the birth rate; it may reduce the number of potential parents locally. D is wrong because a census can still be conducted even when people migrate. Memory cue: people leaving an area can lower its local growth.
