Disclaimers

Limitations
Each year over 2000 New York residents die outside of New York State. Historically, information on these deaths are included in the Annual Report mortality tables. In 2013, information on only about one third of the out of state resident deaths was reported. Among nearby states that reported information in previous years but not in 2013 are New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Vermont. Counties that border these states might have a noticeable decline in the number of resident deaths due to this under-reporting.
