Title | Deaths and Mortality Ratios, Borough

Notes | <p>Deaths by local authority of usual residence, numbers and standardised mortality ratios (SMRs) by sex.</p>
<p>SMR measures whether the population of an area has a higher or lower number of deaths than expected based on the age profile of the population (more deaths are expected in older populations). The SMR is defined as follows: SMR = (Observed no. of deaths per year)/(Expected no. of deaths per year).</p> <p>SMRs are calculated using the previous year's mid-year population estimates. Live birth figures are used for calculations involving deaths under 1 year.</p> <p>The age-standardised mortality rates in this release are directly age-standardised to the European Standard Population, which cover all ages and allows comparisons between populations with different age structures, including between males and females and over time.</p> <p>Note: SMR and deaths by sex data only available since 2001.</p> <p>Download from <a href="http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/vsob1/death-reg-sum-tables/index.html">ONS website</a></p> |
