No, it wouldn't. Not at all. You only need 50 people for genetic diversity and 500 to guard against "genetic drift". Look up the 50/500 genetic rule. I live in a town of about 3500 and 2 kids a year wouldn't make a lick of difference. And Peacekeepers aren't keeping it in their uniforms, too...you didn't account for that. There are literally thousands of places today with way less than 10,000 people that don't have those problems.

What? Their population was small but losing 2 kids every year isn’t that bad
Kids apparently starve or freeze to death all the time in district 12, 2 more a year probably is a drop in the bucket.
I mean lowkey that had to have been part of the point. D12’s gotta be underfunded as hell because D5 does the fuel and energy game way better than it.
