Japan was once known for ultra-low birthrates. Though still low, it now actually has the highest fertility rate in developed E. Asia, and is tied with China, where fertility is still tumbling. Not having a 20x house-price/income may help. economist.com/asia/2022/05/1…

Given that births have dropped more than 10% a year for multiple years in a row, and the economic and COVID situations seem to be deteriorating there, I would expect it to continue to fall significantly yoy. cnn.com/2022/01/17/economy/c…
