<INDICATOR name="DeathRateAA">
        <NAME>DeathRateAA</NAME>
        <DESCRIPTION>age-adjusted mortality rate, age-adjustment, age-standardization, US standard population</DESCRIPTION>
        <DEFAULT_INDICATOR_VIEW_NAME>DeathRateAA.Trend</DEFAULT_INDICATOR_VIEW_NAME>
        <TITLE>Age-Adjusted Death Rate</TITLE>
        <DEFINITION>The number of resident deaths per 100,000 population age-adjusted to the US 2000 standard population</DEFINITION>
        <NUMERATOR>The number of resident deaths</NUMERATOR>
        <DENOMINATOR>Total number of persons in the population</DENOMINATOR>
        <DATA_SOURCE_DATE>05/11/2021</DATA_SOURCE_DATE>
        <WHY_IMPORTANT>Age-adjusted death rates are constructs that show what the level of mortality would be if no changes occurred in the age composition of the population from year to year.  Age-adjusted death rates are better than crude death rates as indicators of relative risk when comparing mortality across geographic areas or between gender or racial/ethnic subgroups of the population that have different age compositions.</WHY_IMPORTANT>
        <HOW_DOING>The age-adjusted death rate had been decreasing fairly steadily until the opioid crisis took hold in 2017.  The decline resumed in 2018 and 2019. 
 The age-adjusted death rate among Blacks is 1.2 times the rate among Whites, 1.8 times the rate among Hispanics, and 2.7 times the rate among Asians.  The age-adjusted death rate among males is 1.4 times the rate among females.  Rates vary across New Jersey counties from a low of 519 in Hunterdon County to a high of 915 in Cumberland County.</HOW_DOING>
        <STATE_VS_US>The New Jersey and US age-adjusted death rates were about the same until the mid-to late-1990s when the New Jersey rate dropped below that of the US.</STATE_VS_US>
