10 and rankings are based on age-adjusted
death rates.
States are categorized from highest rate to lowest. Although adjusted for
differences in age-distribution and population size, rankings by state do not
take into account other state specific population characteristics that may
effect the level of mortality. When the number of deaths is small, rankings by
state may be unreliable due to instability in death rates. For more
