Industrial Stage

The Industrial Stage is a phase in the Demographic Transition Model, typically occurring after a society industrializes. In this stage, economies shift from agriculture to manufacturing and services. Birth rates decline as families adapt to urban living, women's education increases, and access to contraception improves. While death rates remain low due to better healthcare and living standards, the population growth slows significantly. Societies in this stage experience increased urbanization and changing family structures, leading to a more balanced age distribution and enhancing overall prosperity and social development.
