Data

The Russian Fertility and Mortality database (RusFMD) contains detailed fertility and mortality indicators of the Russia’s regions starting from 1959, which can be calculated on the basis of official statistical data retrieved from Rosstat and other sources. The Russian fertility and mortality indicators for the period after 1959 can be found in the Human Fertility Database and in the Human Mortality Database.

RusFMD is made primarily for specialists involved in professional analysis of demographic indicators. The format of data allows their uploading into any system for statistical analysis and easy access to data files on the website. Therefore, we neither provide an interface to set up necessary configuration of the data at the website, nor give aggregated indicators. For more information, please begin by reading Data description.

Note: Rosstat has included a new code 320 "Coronavirus infection caused by COVID-19" to data on causes of death for 2020.

Age scales used in data:

  • one-year age groups for fertility rates: 15-, 16,..., 49, 50+
  • 5-year age groups for fertility rates: 20-, 20-24,…, 44-49, 50+
  • one-year age groups for mortality rates: 0,1,…,99,100+
  • 5-year age groups for mortality rates: 0,1-4,5-9,80-84,85+

Data by birth order are available for orders 1,2,3,4,5+

Commentary on 2022 data
1) The presented indicators refer to the territory within the boundaries established on March 17, 2014.
2) For complete comparability with data for previous years, the calculations were made without taking into account the results of the 2021 All-Russian Population Census.
3) Data on mortality from external causes are summarized in the records 256-305 without distribution to specific causes.
