I dont know the pop but usually in bad areas people can’t afford many things and their health is bad and so people die at younger ages. So when the stress rate is high and the population increases, people start having their life’s at young ages. This makes the population increase more.
im not sure what the population is right now in the world but it could be increasing due to uncertainties, needing to escape from stress, no protection nearby to purchase in those areas, or just wanting babies to continue the familys line
