Based off of the Population Pyramids below, the statistics to the left, and the understanding of the Demographic Transition Model; it can be inferred that Cape Verde is in Stage 4 of the Demographic Transition Model. This stage can be justified by the fact that Cape Verde's Population Growth is 0.9%, and Stage 4 will demonstrate a stable and low Population Growth. Also, the Death Rate of 6 deaths per 1,000 people is considered low. Stage 4 of the Demographic Transition Model will display that type of data. Lastly, the Life Expectancy at Birth is 71.85 years, the Life Expectancy at Birth for Females is 74.19 years, and the Life Expectancy at Birth for Males is 69.58 years; Stage 4 is the stage that will show a life expectancy 65-75 years.
