Based on the 2025 National Family Survey, the article tracks rapid demographic and family changes in Morocco. These include a rise in nuclear households to 73%, while extended households have fallen to 19.8%, and fertility has dropped to 1.98 children per woman—below the replacement level of 2.1. It notes that around 52% of unmarried people are reluctant to marry, and that courts record nearly 160,000 divorce and judicial divorce cases each year, more than 97% of them filed under procedures for marital discord (*shiqaq*). The article also highlights the growing number of couples living without children and the fact that 23% of older people report feeling lonely. It links these trends to the cost of living, housing pressures, youth unemployment and inadequate care services, presenting them as challenges that call for forward-looking analysis; their consequences will be explored in the second part.
