§Death Rates in Virginia (1940)

§Description:

Death rates per 1000 in Virginia in 1940.

§Usage:

VADeaths

§Format:

A matrix with 5 rows and 4 columns.

§Details:

The death rates are measured per 1000 population per year. They are cross-classified by age group (rows) and population group (columns). The age groups are: 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74 and the population groups are Rural/Male, Rural/Female, Urban/Male and Urban/Female.

This provides a rather nice 3-way analysis of variance example.
