    If anything people had bigger families in the past

    Last time I was in France (4 years ago, before Covid) it was not uncommon to see families with 3 children, so I don’t know… maybe there are not that many in Paris…

      The current fertility rate for France in 2024 is 1.847 births per woman, a 0.05% decline from 2023

      Sounds about right. Western and Central Europe is aging rapidly. I doubt Paris is much of an exception to that rule.
