Residents of England's poorest neighborhoods die prematurely twice as often

A Health Foundation analysis based on 2021 census data and death statistics from March 2021 to December 2023 found that people from England's poorest areas die before age 75 more than twice as often as residents of wealthier regions. Risk of premature death also increases with lower education and lack of employment. The study's findings reveal, according to its authors, the scale of health inequality in England.
