Fertility rates differ notably between religious individuals and those who identify as atheists or agnostics. In the United States, data from the Pew Research Center indicates that atheists have an average of 1.6 children, while agnostics have 1.3 children.

Depends on what you focus. Till about 30 years ago, I haven‘t seen beggars on the street except a few young punks. Now you see on every single day several foreign beggars, often abusing dogs or their own children for the mean to get more money. Sometimes they even knock on your door (happened two times to me while living in Regensburg). Most of them are Romas or from Eastern Europe. And the drug addicts you find around the train stations mainly. And in the big cities like Berlin even on the main places.
