Description
Episode 49 of The Demographics Podcast explores a surprising ripple of declining birth rates: the casket industry. With fewer children to manage end-of-life arrangements, funeral homes are seeing a shift toward cremation and pre-planned services. Lucas and Luna examine how demographics are reshaping a traditionally stable market, from consolidation among funeral homes to innovation in biodegradable urns. A must-listen for anyone interested in the hidden economic impacts of population aging.
