Deaths-versus-Age (2021)

! Note !
I will probably not add any more data to this table.
I used all the obituary pages that I had collected
from Sunday issues of the
Daily Press newspaper,
for the Virginia 'Peninsula' area.
However some additional images & information may be
added someday to show how the
LibreOffice Calc
spreadsheet formulas and chart-dialogs were used.
That info may be added on this page --- or
on a 'central'/'parent' page.
Introduction to the table : This page provides a table of 'number-of-deaths versus age' data --- for 'the Peninsula' --- for the year 2021. The nature of the data collected is discussed on the 'parent page' of this page --- a 'menu-of-tables' page. The data is presented below in a simple 'raw text' format --- so that it can be easily collected (copied and pasted) into a text file and fed into a plot utility. |

Sources of the data: The 2021-data above was collected from Sunday obituary pages of the Daily Press newspaper (Wikipedia link). This year-2021 data includes 525 men and 514 women --- a total of 1,039 deaths. Note that the data above is not a complete count of deaths on 'the Peninsula' --- an area between the James and York Rivers --- including the cities of Newport News and Hampton in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia (Wikipedia link). The following Sunday obituaries were used --- 34 Sundays (quite a few less than 52 weeks of Sundays).

Above are plots of the data - for men & for women - from newpaper obituaries in the Jan to Dec 2021 time frame. The 'cumulative-percent' plots are more instructive than the 'raw data' plots. The cumulative-percent plots can give an idea of the age at which 50% or 75% or 90% of deaths occur. The cumulative-percent plots also serve to 'smooth out' the data. For men, the 50% level looks like about age 78. For women, the 50% level looks like about age 83. You can see these 'cut-off' points a little more clearly by looking at the cumulative-percent data columns in the spreadsheet that was used. Here is a link to the spreadsheet (a LibreOffice Calc '.ods' Open Document Format file) used to
Some images of the LibreOffice Calc spreadsheet columns (and the spreadsheet formulas used) may be put here someday. Here is a link to a '.xlsx' spreadsheet file (exported from LibreOffice Calc) and purported to be compatible with Microsoft Excel 2007-2013 XML format. There are no guarantees that it is readable into a current version of Microsoft Excel. |
