Highest life expectancy, lowest infant mortality (12 out of 1000 compared to 65 out of 1000 in the rest of India), lowest fertility rate (1.8 compared to 3.1 in the rest of India) and a declining rate of population growth .
Slower population growth rate, a higher quality of life and GDP/capita ($2,950) than the rest of India
The women are much better educated than the rest of India meaning that they can understand better the needs of their children and families. For example they can read leaflets, ask for vaccinations etc.
There is much better family planning, as women understand about contraception and sterilisation. People also understand that they can only afford a few children which leads to small family norms
As woman are educated they are of a higher state, many go to university and get good jobs eg doctors, nurses, teachers. This means women are not just at home having children
