Answer
Why are newborn numbers relevant when looking at Mallorca’s population?
Birth figures matter because they show whether natural population change is helping or weakening overall growth. In Mallorca and the Balearic Islands, recent reports point to fewer newborns, which adds another layer to the population picture. Even if immigration keeps numbers up for now, lower births can affect schools, services, and the future workforce.
