Answer:

Based on the population pyramid, the one-child policy has been successful. The pyramid has become much more of a cylinder, with only a few bumps, showing stable birthrates for decades. It also shows that the 0-4 age-group makes up only about 6% of the population. This data matches population pyramids of stable, western nations like Germany and the United States.
