ACS released the 2024 5-yr microdata sets. Here is updated TFR by language spoken at home in the US, ranked from highest to lowest.
Anything with 'languages' in the name is a mess, but the trimmed average should give a rough idea of what the TFR is for smaller languages.

The newest MICS survey puts the TFR of Serbia in 2025 at 1.44 children per woman (official statistics give a figure of 1.62). The TFR in Roma settlements was 3.1.
The ideal number of children for Serbs is 2.4. The ideal number of children for the Roma settlements is barely higher at 2.7. Roma in Serbia seem to have more children than they actually want, so a part of the explanation of the high Roma TFR is lack of access to contraceptives.
@0bservationism You may have more luck with the Low German Mennonites. They’re always moving to new countries! Australia was considered as a destination for them in the 19th century, but eventually they settled in Canada instead.
In 51 Russian regions (60%) TFR declined by >4% between 2024 and 2026. In 17 regions, the drop in TFR over a 21-month period exceeded 7%, while4 regions saw a decline of >10%; the median across federal subjects stands at −4.85%
An article explores Mennonite demographic expansion in Bolivia, estimating thier tfr at ~5.9.
By 2101, Mennonites could represent:
• 7-9% of the population
• Over ⅓ of the country's births

Change in TFR in Belize by ethnicity, 2010–2022. Overall, the relative decline was greatest among Garifuna and Creole populations, and smallest among Mennonites and Mestizos, however, all groups experienced substantial declines
@magyarskinhead@Jam1377@Guvensc240S@Goparticul59290 I came across this. It suggests a 16% shortfall in birth registrations, which appears to align with the census and birth registartio gap. https://t.co/ZMXxQJiVmj
@magyarskinhead@Jam1377@Guvensc240S@Goparticul59290 Based on census data, Belize’s TFR was 2.28 overall, 5.24 for Mennonites, 2.19 excluding Mennonites, and 2.02 excluding both Mennonites and Maya. The census recorded 7,702 births from May 2021 to April 2022, significantly more than officially registered. https://t.co/UeODKbeFlV

TFRs by states in the US for 2026, based on birth counts in the first half of the year.
Each passing year, the pattern of red states having a higher TFR gets a little bit more pronounced.
@InfoAtJames Kashubians and Górale seem to have maintained higher fertility rates than much of the rest of Poland, perhaps in part due to their stronger local traditions, religiosity, and sense of cultural distinctiveness from society at large.
@InfoAtJames Thanks for covering them! Nothing much to add, except that the last time I visited, I was struck by how many families I saw with three children.
