ABS - Deaths in Australia (SA2) 2010-2015

This dataset contains statistics for deaths and mortality in Australia. It includes all deaths that occurred and were registered in Australia, including deaths of persons whose place of usual residence was overseas. Deaths of Australian residents that occurred outside Australia may be registered by individual Registrars, but are not included in Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) death statistics. Standardised death rates in this dataset differ from those in the ABS.Stat datasets and commentary. Standardised death rates in this dataset are averaged using data for the three years ending in the reference year. They are calculated for each calendar year and then averaged. Standardised death rates in the ABS.Stat datasets and commentary are based on death registration data for the reference year only. Null values represent data not available for publication This dataset uses deaths and estimated resident population (ERP) for Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2) of Australia for 30 June 2010 to 2015, according to the 2011 edition of the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS). ERP is final for 2010 and 2011, revised for 2012 to 2014 and preliminary for 2015. For 2015, preliminary ERP used in sub-state data cubes is different from that used elsewhere in this release. Data has been sourced from the September 2016 release. For more information including which ERP was used in this dataset please visit the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Explanatory Notes. AURIN has spatially enabled the original data from the ABS 2011 SA2 boundaries.
