Abstract: The substantial share of births to unmarried women (FP-21-17), as well as the older median age at first marriage than at first birth (FP-21-12; FP-20-06), provide evidence of the decoupling of marriage and childbearing in recent decades. This profile uses data from the 2020 American Community Survey (ACS)* to examine the demographic characteristics of currently married and unmarried women aged 15-50 who had a birth within the past 12 months. This profile updates previous profiles using the most recent data available (FP-20-17; FP-13-10).
