This dataset provides indicators on health status in in large regions (TL2), and small regions (TL3) when data is available. Indicators include life expectancy, raw mortality rate, age-adjusted mortality rate and infant mortality rate. Data definition and source Life expectancy at birth is defined as how long, on average, a newborn can expect to live, if current death rates do not change. Crude mortality rate is defined as the ratio of the number of deaths during the year to the average population in that year. The indicator is expressed per 1 000 inhabitants. Age-adjusted mortality rate represents the death rate that would be expected in a given region if its population had the same age distribution as the OECD average, enabling comparability across different countries and regions. For small TL3 regions, where this indicator may vary, it is advisable to calculate the average values over a minimum period of three years for a more reliable assessment. Infant mortality rate is the number of deaths of children less than one year of age per 1 000 live births. Data is collected from Eurostat (reg_hlth) for EU countries and via delegates of the OECD Working Party on Territorial Indicators (WPTI), as well as from national statistical offices' websites. Definition of regions Regions are subnational units below national boundaries. OECD countries have two regional levels: large regions (territorial level 2 or TL2) and small regions (territorial level 3 or TL3).
