Summary/Abstract: Total fertility rate (TFR) is evaluated for 2001–2010 on the basis of age structure of major ethnic groups in Bulgaria according the 1.2.2011 census, for the whole country and by districts. By districts TFR varies least in Bulgarians – from 1,01 in Veliko Tyrnovo to 1,27 in Sliven. Higher is the variation in Turks – from 1,07 in Smoljan to 2,17 in Jambol.. Highest is the fertility variation in Roma – from 2,14 in Pazardzhik to 3,53 in Smoljan. Roma remain the ethnic group in which the demographic transition is still not completed and there is extended population reproduction in all districts.
