This is according to DC Jewellery's Cities of Love 2022 which compiled research based on data collected in 2019 that reveals that there are 20 births per 1 000 people in Cape Town.

“The residents of Cape Town certainly aren’t afraid of getting intimate, with the highest birth rate of all the cities on the list of 20 per 1,000 people. SA’s death rate is 9.3 deaths per 1,000 people, meaning that the birth rate is more than double the death rate there,” the research found, as reported by TimesLive.

The Mother City is closely followed by Istanbul and Sydney.

Moshe Dichaba said:

“The first blessing God gave to man"...be fruitful and multiply, fill the earth and subdue it..." Well done Capetonians doing the word.”

Nick Bacon wrote:

“Naturally it’s known that 3rd world countries have a higher birth rate due to limited accessibility of contraceptives and limited education, however, due to the poverty we also have a higher death rate and life expectancy is lower than first world countries. This is not a good stat considering we can barely support the current people let alone new ones to this country.”

Anel EN-Manie du Preez shared:

“But it’s because Sassa pays them for each and every successful spyker session... mos?”

Matt Sabos responded:

“This is shocking hence the cycle of poverty, crime, and unemployment shalt continue ‍♂️ if you cannot live up to the responsibility of having a child then one should not even think of having one.”
