Abstract:  Malaysia’s total fertility rate (TFR) dropped to 1.6 children per woman in 2022, with Kuala Lumpur reporting the lowest at 1.2, well below the replacement level. Sustained low fertility threatens future labour force replacement, healthcare sustainability, and family support sustems. Urban pressures such as high living costs, work-life imbalance, and housing challenges further discourage childbearing. Despite these concerns, there remains limited empirical evidence on how socio-demographic factors influence fertility intentions in Malaysia’s Urban population. This study examines the socio-demographic determinants of fertility intention among adults in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s lowest-fertility region.
