Cuba's population seems to be slowing down on its growth since most women only have 1-2 children and the birth rate is very close to the death rate.

According to this population pyramid, Cuba looks like it's in stage 4. There are less people being born and less people dying. The birth and death rates are almost balanced. There may be a decrease in the population once the large amount of middle aged people start passing away since there doesn't seem to be enough births to compensate for that.

Cuba has a very low amount of immigration as immigrants only account for 0.1% of their population. There are also a lot of younger people leaving the country to go to the US (more specifically Florida). There aren't many social issues in Cuba due to immigration due to how little immigration there is. It's also fairly easy to emigrate since they abolished all government-controlled travel restrictions in 2013.

Like it was stated earlier, there's a pretty large amount of younger people leaving Cuba which is leading to their population decreasing. This has been an ongoing issue for a while but the impact of COVID on Cuba's economy has been too much and it's causing a lot of people to finally make the choice to leave. Cubans no longer have preferential status over other immigrants though, so that also makes their immigration a little harder.
