Devenir propriétaire peut-il arrêter la baisse des naissances ?

Researchers are studying if owning a house can increase the number of births.

They looked at the history of the United States after the Second World War.

At that time, the government helped people buy houses.

Bank loan programs made access to property easier for families.

This help caused a large increase in population called the "baby boom".

Today, the price of houses is very high in many countries.

Many young couples do not have enough money to buy a home.

Without a stable home, they wait longer before having children.

Experts think that new housing programs could help.

This could perhaps reverse the current decline in the birth rate.
