Caveats

  • An annual rate pooled over three years for stability, not a three-year cumulative rate.
  • Directly age-standardised to the 2013 European Standard Population, so age differences between areas are removed; not a crude count divided by population.
  • Deaths are counted in the area where the person lived, not where they died.
  • The published values are flagged as based on provisional mortality and population data, so they can be revised.
  • 95% confidence interval: 947.5 to 998.4 per 100,000.
  • Derived from the published point estimates for 151 upper-tier authorities with data. Exact ties share a rank. Overlapping confidence intervals mean nearby ranks may not be meaningfully different.
  • Lower means fewer deaths after age-standardisation. Not a measure of any individual's risk.
