What the Data Shows

First-marriage age connects family formation to Taiwan’s wider fertility squeeze. From 2014 to 2024, men’s average first-marriage age rose from 32.1 to 33.1, while women’s rose from 29.9 to 31.1. The movement helps frame low births as part of a broader delay in household formation.
