Definition
"Age-adjusted Death Rate (Direct Method): Death rate in a group is calculated as a weighted average of the age-specific death rate of the same group. The system of weights is the age distribution of a population called the standard population. The percentages were age-adjusted to the U.S. 2000 standard population using appropriate age distributions. The tables do not present rates for the Native American/Alaska Native population due to small population size."
