The number of <strong>deaths<\/strong>, after peaking in 2015 with 648 thousand cases, were 608 thousand, a high level in line with the upward trend due to population aging. The <strong>natural increase<\/strong> recorded a negative figure in 2016 (-134 thousand) which was the second worst result ever, superior only to that of 2015 (-162 thousand).<\/p>\n<p>The net <strong>international migration<\/strong> in 2016 amounted to +135 thousand, a similar level to that seen in 2015.
