4 days ago - Before Soviet occupation in 1940, ethnic Latvians constituted about three-fourths of the country’s population. Today they make up about three-fifths of the population, and Russians account for about one-fourth. There are small groups of Belarusians, Ukrainians, Poles, Lithuanians, and others.
‘Without enough Latvians, we won’t be Latvia’: eastern Europe’s shrinking population | Latvia’s population is 30% smaller than it was in 1990 and by 2050 numbers will be in decline in over half of Europe’s 52 countries.
To be honest though, as a Latvian I can say that in 1990 a lot of people in Latvia were recent Russian speaking immigrants from other Soviet republics who left, either to go back to their countries or West in the later years so the decline has been not as much about ethnic Latvians or Latvians who have lived here for generations, but of first generation immigrants. But yes, it is and will be a challenge going forward. More on reddit.com

October 21, 2022To anyone panicking about population decline.
Un ko ar šo gribi teikt?
Rekur vēl piemērs.
Kopš 17. Gadsimta pirātu skaits sāka sarukt.
Līdz ar pirātu skaita samazināšanos, klimata izmaiņas kļuva arvien nopietnākas.
Tātad pirāti ir atbildīgi par kliemata stabilitāti uz zemes.
Pats šo neizdomāju. Tas ir no Pastafarianisma.
Mums GDP auga ne tapēc, ka samazinās iedzīvotāju skaits.
GDP audzēt jaunām attīstības valstīm ir ļoti naturāli un vienkārši.
Viens iemesls ir : GDP augs lēta darbaspēka dēļ kamēr šis darbaspēks pārstās būt tik lēts, ka izkonkurē reģionu. Piemērs ir Ķīna, kuras iedzīvotāji bija lētais darbaspēks, bet ar Ķīnas labklājības pieaugumu, Ķīnietis vairs pa 20 $ nestrādās. Līdz ar šo jaunais lētais darbaspēks virzās uz Āfriku. Tas pats bija ar latviešiem, tikai reģionālā mērogā.
Otrs iemesls ir: Ar esošu tehnoloģiju pārņemšanu var ļoti steauji audzēt ražošanu, līdz ar to GDP. Šī straujā augšana turpināsies kamēr vēl jaunākas tehnoloģijas vairs nespēs palielināt ražošanu tik lielā ap.ērā kā pirms tam.
Piemēram PSRS laikā bija tizlas un atpalikušas iekārtas, kuras ļāva ražot 10 zābakus stundā. Tagad kļuvām neatkarīgi un UK pārdod mums jaunākās iekārtas, kas ļauj ražot 50 zābakus stundā. Man GDP izaugs ļoti strauji. Tad paiet 10 gadi un visas iekārtas man ir no UK. Kā augt tālāk? Meklēju labākas iekārtas. Bet jaunākas iekārtas vairs nedos tik strauju lēcienu ražošanā, lai mans GDP augtu tik dramatiski kā pirmīt.
Ekonomikā ir tāds jēdziens kā vidējā ienākuma slazds.
Attīstības valsts GDP strauji aug līdz sasniedz vidēju līmeni. Lai pārkāptu pāri vidēja līmeņa slieksnim, valstij ir jābūt katk kam unikālam.
Latvijai nekā unikāla pašlaik nav un maihi sakot reformas arī nav spīdošas. Un korupcija augsta.
Mēs pēdējos gadus 10 iespējams sitamies pret šo vidēju ienākumu sienu un liela iespēja, ka arī nākamos 20 gadus ditīsimies un būsim ar vidējiem ienākumiem.

May 18, 2013Why is Riga's population shrinking while Vilnius is rising?
Rīgas population isn't really decreasing, Riga with the metro area is probably the only part of Latvia that has growing population, what's actually happening is the decreasing of density, kids growing up and moving out of their parents appts and people leaving cramped communal apartments Not to mention that the Latvian dream is having a detached house and your own sauna and garden which isn't achievable in the borders of Riga Aka essentially people leaving the technical border of Riga while still working and shopping there, so if you stop looking at it naively, the city of Riga probably has around 1.3 million population More on reddit.com
