It has been suggested in the literature that twinning rates are reduced by psychosocial stress associated with urban life. No support for this hypothesis was found in a study based upon the 5762 twins and 280158 singletons that were born in Denmark in the period 1978 to 1982.

Key Words: twinning rates • urban life • epidemiology
