The total population of New Zealand is 4,474,549. New Zealand is a MDC because of the characteristics it displays. These characteristics include the density, obesity rate, children under 5 underweight, and the AIDS rate. New Zealand has a rather steady population that doesn't change drastically, and the density adds to this because it is not too crowded and not too sparse. The obesity rate is not high and the children under 5 underweight nor the AIDS rate is available, which makes me think that they are both low. This information shows that the overall economy is stable because they can provide enough food for their people and their medical status is good enough to provide for everyone and keep them all healthy.
