"Declines in Adult Death Rates Lag in the U.S. South" - Population Reference Bureau. 01/01/2018

In collaboration with Andrew Fenelon from the University of Maryland, the Population Reference Bureau created an interactive visualization tool for age-standardized death rates in each US state for residents age 55 and above, by gender. A graph below the map allows comparison to all other states of the selected group. NIA’s John Haaga says: “State-level death rates at older ages give us a good, but not perfect, indicator of what’s happening to population health.”
