This dataset of U.S. mortality trends since 1900 highlights trends in age-adjusted death rates for five selected major causes of death. Age-adjusted death rates (deaths per 100,000) after 1998 are calculated based on the 2000 U.S. standard population. Populations used for computing death rates for 2011–2017 are postcensal estimates based on the 2010 census, estimated as of July 1, 2010. Rates for census years are based on populations enumerated in the corresponding censuses. Rates for noncensus years between 2000 and 2010 are revised using updated intercensal population estimates and may differ from rates previously published. Data on age-adjusted death rates prior to 1999 are taken from historical data (see References below). Revisions to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) over time may result in discontinuities in cause-of-death trends.

From 2000 to 2017, the infant mortality rate for all maternal age groups in the United States declined. The age group at highest risk were those aged under 20 years, with those aged between 30 and 34 years having the lowest risk of infant death during this time period. This statistic illustrates infant mortality per 1,000 births from 2000 to 2017 in the U.S., by maternal age group.

Number of deaths and age-specific mortality rates for selected grouped causes, by age group and sex, 2000 to most recent year.

This is historical data. The update frequency has been set to "Static Data" and is here for historic value. Updated 8/14/2024. Rate of deaths per 100,000 population by selected underlying causes of death among Maryland residents (1992-2017).

This dataset contains estimates of mortality rates due to the major causes of death among the population of New York City, starting 2007. The estimated data for crude and age-adjusted mortality rates due the major causes of death are described by gender and race/ethnicity of the population groups.

In 2022, the age-adjusted drug overdose death rate for males was 45.6 per 100,000 population. Opioids are the main driver of overdose deaths in the United States. This statistic presents the age-adjusted drug overdose death rate in the U.S. from 1999 to 2022, by gender, per 100,000 population.

In 2020, 108 out of 1,000 elderly people living in rural India, died at an age between 80 and 84 years old. The highest death rate was among elderly people who were 85 years or older in the country.

The rate standardised by age and sex obtained by direct standardisation is the rate that would be observed in the population studied if it had the same age structure as a reference population, here the standard European population of 2013. It is calculated by weighting the age-specific mortality rates observed in the population by the age structure of the reference population.

In 2023, the age-specific death rate for men aged 90 or over in England and Wales was 248.1 per one thousand population, and 215.1 for women. Except for infants that were under the age of one, younger age groups had the lowest death rate, with the death rate getting progressively higher in older age groups.

Age-adjustment mortality rates are rates of deaths that are computed using a statistical method to create a metric based on the true death rate so that it can be compared over time for a single population (i.e. comparing 2006-2008 to 2010-2012), as well as enable comparisons across different populations with possibly different age distributions in their populations (i.e. comparing Hispanic residents to Asian residents).
Age adjustment methods applied to Montgomery County rates are consistent with US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) as well as Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene’s Vital Statistics Administration (DHMH VSA). PHS Planning and Epidemiology receives an annual data file of Montgomery County resident deaths registered with Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene’s Vital Statistics Administration (DHMH VSA).
Using SAS analytic software, MCDHHS standardizes, aggregates, and calculates age-adjusted rates for each of the leading causes of death category consistent with state and national methods and by subgroups based on age, gender, race, and ethnicity combinations. Data are released in compliance with Data Use Agreements between DHMH VSA and MCDHHS. This dataset will be updated Annually.

Life expectancy at birth is decomposed by age specific death rates, which can change over time and contribute to the overall change in life expectancy.

This dataset of U.S. mortality trends since 1900 highlights the differences in age-adjusted death rates and life expectancy at birth by race and sex. Age-adjusted death rates (deaths per 100,000) after 1998 are calculated based on the 2000 U.S. standard population. Populations used for computing death rates for 2011–2017 are postcensal estimates based on the 2010 census, estimated as of July 1, 2010. Rates for census years are based on populations enumerated in the corresponding censuses. Rates for noncensus years between 2000 and 2010 are revised using updated intercensal population estimates and may differ from rates previously published. Data on age-adjusted death rates prior to 1999 are taken from historical data (see References below). Life expectancy data are available up to 2017. Due to changes in categories of race used in publications, data are not available for the black population consistently before 1968, and not at all before 1960.
