Characteristics of Developed & Developing
Nations
- Infant Mortality Rate
- Developed Nations: The infant mortality

around 1%. (Cunningham)
- Developing Nations: The infant mortality
rate in developing countries can be as low
as 7 and as high as 64. (World Bank)
- Cause: The huge range in the infant
mortality rate is because there is often

- Access to Health Care
- Healthcare is a very
important character of a
country as it is connected to
many other characters of a
country such as infant
mortality rate and amount of
diseases.
- Developed Nations: The
population has easier access to
healthcare as the government
has a bigger budget allocation to
medical needs.
- Developing Nations: Some
developing nations have better
healthcare systems than others. In
some developing nations, there is
less access to healthcare as there
are many small villages that are
far from hospitals/clinics.

- Literacy Rate
- Definition: Percentage of
population who are over 15
that can read and write
- Developed Nations: Average
literacy rate of 95%-100%
literacy rate
- Developing Nations: Average
literacy rate of as low as 30%
and as high as 95%
- Impact of Access to Education on Literacy Rate:
A main factor that affects a country’s literacy
rate is access to education. In some countries,
the majority of children only finish primary

- Population Growth Rate

- Developed Nations:
Developed countries have a
mediocre to slow population
growth
- Cause: Low birth rates are the cause of
the slow population growth rate. The
low birth rate is due to the high cost of
living in developed and developing
nations which causes couples to want
less or no children at all. Women in
developed countries also need to focus
on working so they can earn enough to
support themselves.
