A review document on Puerto Rico lists outmigration and a declining population as risk factors for the island's outlook.[^3][^4]

Act 60, the Puerto Rico Incentives Code in effect since July 2019, requires individuals to become bona fide residents and spend at least 183 days a year in the territory.[^1][^2]

The World Bank keeps population figures for Puerto Rico, including its total population and its female population.[^5][^6]
