Mortality rates

Sources

The CDC WONDER Online Database is the source of the 2023 National Vital Statistics System death data featured in Stats of the States.

Where states are ranked, states are categorized from highest rate to lowest rate. Mortality rankings and rates are based on 2023 age-adjusted death rates.

Although adjusted for variations in age distribution and population size, differences by state do not account for other state-specific population characteristics that may affect death rates.

When the number of deaths is small, differences between states and rankings by state may be unreliable due to instability in rates.
