The slow down in fertility reduction has delayed the demographic transition and Congo&rsquo;s potential to reap a demographic dividend, the economic boost that can occur when the share of the working-age population is larger than the dependent age groups. The TFR differs significantly between urban and rural areas &ndash; 3.7 in urban areas versus 6.5 in rural areas.&nbsp; The TFR also varies among regions. &nbsp;The urban regions of Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire have much lower TFRs than other regions, which are predominantly or completely rural. The gap between desired fertility and actual fertility is also greatest in rural areas.&nbsp; Rural families may have more children to contribute to agriculture production and/or due to a lack of information about and access to contraception.&nbsp; Urban families may prefer to have fewer children because raising them is more expensive and balancing work and childcare may be more difficult.&nbsp; The number of births among teenage girls, the frequency of giving birth before the age of fifteen, and a lack of education are the most likely reasons for higher TFRs in rural areas.&nbsp; Although 90% of school-age children are enrolled in primary school, repetition and dropout rates are high and the quality of education is poor.&nbsp; Congolese women with no or little education start having children earlier and have more children in total than those with at least some secondary education."
