VITAL STATISTICS REPORT Summary Report-Final Mortality Statistics, 1970
I (HRA)74-1129 FROM THE VOL. 22, NO. 8
SUPPLEMENT NATIONAL CENTER FOR HEALTH STATISTICS NOVEMBER 14, 1973
PART 1. DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS
Deaths and death Yates. —Traditionally, mortality statistics have included all deaths occurring in the United States. Beginning in 1970 the data refer to deaths of United States residents only. In that year, there were 1,921,031 resident deaths and 1,935 deaths of nonresidents in the United States.
In comparing data for 1970 with those for 1969, this difference in coverage for the 2 years should be kept in mind. However, the small number of non-resident deaths in 1970 probably does not affect the magnitude of rates nor of percentage changes shown in this report.
The death rate for 1970 was 9.5 per 1,000 population, the same as the rate for 1969. The rate for males was 0.9 percent lower than that of 1969 and the rate for females (8. 1 per 1,000 population) was the same aa the rate for 1969. The difference between the two rates in 1970 was 2.8 deaths per 1,000 population. This difference has remained relatively constant for many years. By color, the rate for white persons in 1970 was 9.5 per 1,000 population, the same as the rate for 1969, and the rate for all other

persons was 2.1 percent lower than the rate for 1969.
The death rates for two geographic regions (North Central and West) were lower for 1970 than for 1969. In the Northeast Region the rate remained the same and in the South Region the rate increased 2.2 percent. Each division in the South Region contributed to the increase. The largest decline in the death rate occurred in the New England Division of the Northeast Region (3.0 percent).
The death rate was either Iower or remained unchanged for all age groups except one. The one exception was the age group 75-84 years where the rate increased 1.3 percent. The largest decline occurred in the age group 85 years and over (14.4 percent).
Life expectancy. —Figure 2 shows that life expectancy for 1970 was a record high. The average expectation of Iife at birth for 1970 was 67.1 years for males, 74.8 for females, and 70.9 for the total population. The life expectancy at birth in 1970 was 71.7 years for the white population and 65.3 for

8“ MONTHLY VITAL” STATISTICS REPORT
persons of races other than white. These measures represent the average number of years that persons born in 1970 would live if they were subject to the age-specific death rates of that year throughout. their lives.
Infant movtality.--In 1970 there were 74,667 resident infant deaths, 406 less than the total in 1969 for residents and nonresidents combined. Appropriate denominators for the calculation of infant, fetal, and maternal mortality rates for 1970 were not available at the time this publication went to press. Therefore, until these rates are available, the counts of infant, fetal, and maternal deaths must be interpreted with considerable caution.
SOURCES OF DATA
Data shown in this report are based on copies of all death and fetal-death certificates received from the 50 States and the District of Columbia.
The death rates for the United States and the individual States are based on the enumerated populations as of April 1, 1970. These populations exclude the Armed Forces overseas and persons living abroad but include the Armed Forces stationed in the area. The enumerated populations of the United States by age, color, and sex in 1970 are published by the U.S. Bureau of the Census in PC (1)-B General pO@.&ZtiO?t chWaCkW%tiCS, and PC (~) De~&?d
