Total fertility rate

1.94 children born/woman (2023 est.)

comparison ranking: 116

Eh, the TFR is below replacement rate and probably could benefit from a bump.

Some facts about the Gaza Strip:

  • Population: ~2.3 Million
  • Area: 365 km² (141 sq mi)
    • 41 km (25 mi) long, from 6 to 12 km (3.7 to 7.5 mi) wide
  • Population density: ~6300/km² 1

Gaza is very densely populated. In Gaza live as many people as in Houston. But Houston has an area of 1658.6 km² (640.4 sq mi). Thus Gaza has nearly five times the population density of Houston. New York City is the only city in the US with a population of more than a million and a higher population density than Gaza. 2The tallest building in Palestine stands at 76.1 m (255 ft). 3

A little less than half of the population of Gaza is made up of children. 4

There are only three (“legal”) ways in and out of Gaza:

  • Rafah Crossing into Egypt in the south
  • Kerem Shalom Crossing into Israel in the south
  • Erez Crossing into Israel in the north

Gaza has a very small port. It can only be used by small fisher boats. 5

Israel built a wall and fences around Gaza. 6

[OC] Some B&W photos of Barcelona

I am not a serious photographer, but with the help of black and white filters I can pretend.

@pics

The entrance side to Bar Marsalla. There are two ports in the stone wall, framed with this wood and glass. At the top of each is an old exhaust fan, not spinning. Some graffiti is on the wall between the two ports. (Black & white.)
An interior view of Bar Marsalla, facing the same entrance side wall as the previous photo. Four patrons, consisting of two couples at different tables, one behind the other, sit below a lit chandelier and a ceiling with old, peeling paint. (Black & white.)
A skateboarder sitting on the ground of a plaza after having just fallen. A pigeon waddles in the foreground. In the background is a brick and stone wall with large artistic signage. (Black & white.)
A Korean woman walks through a plaza, towards the left of the frame. She wears a dark, sleeveless dress with a flowery pattern. Lots of other people walk in the background. (Black and white.)
A view of a sunny, cloudless sky from beneath a beach umbrella. (Black & white.)
A repost of the photo I took of the delivery worker on the beach. This version is black and white and is cropped more closely around the delivery worker so that only one other beachgoer is visible in the bottom of the frame.
