Chart Details
Timeframe: 1990-2022
Country: Australia
Published date: 2024
Note: The death rate, as defined by World Development Indicators, measures the number of deaths in a given population during a specific time period, usually expressed as deaths per 1,000 individuals per year.
Key Takeaways
Australia’s death rate generally declined from 7.0 in 1990 to a low of 6.3 in 2018, reflecting improved healthcare, higher life expectancy, and a younger population. However, post-2018, the rate showed periodic increases, peaking at 7.3 in 2022. The jump in 2021 and 2022 can be attributed to pandemic-related fatalities and an aging demographic, signaling an emerging shift in Australia's population health trends.
