How to Interpret the Graphs
Gender Each slide depicts trend differences by either gender, race, geography, or social and economic factors, as shown by the heading. The trend lines identify change over time for the given indicator (in this case, the rates of infant death per 1,000 live births). The legends just below the graphs show the subgroup and the specific annual rate of change for each subgroup in percentage terms. In this example, male infant mortality has declined by an average of 1.0% per year over the past 10 years, while female infant mortality has declined by an average of 0.5% per year. Green lines indicate improving trends and red lines indicate worsening trends. A yellow line indicates no change. All trend lines represent regression lines, not actual data points. Males: -1.0% Females: -0.5%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 1-24) Gender Males: -2.7% Females: -1.7%
Over ten years, male and female death rates for individuals ages 1-24 have been improving. The male death rate has been declining at an average rate of 2.7% per year, and the female rate at an average rate of 1.7% per year. Males: -2.7% Females: -1.7%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 1-24) Race/Ethnicity White Trend: -1.9%
Black Trend: -3.9% American Indian Trend: -4.2% Over ten years, death rates for individuals ages 1-24 of all races have been improving, except for Hispanics who have had a constant rate over the past 10 years. But the rates of improvement vary considerably. For example, the death rate of Asians ages 1-24 has been declining at an average rate of 12.8% per year, while the death rate of Blacks ages 1-24 has been declining at an average rate of 3.9% per year. Asian Trend: % Hispanic Trend: -0.5%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 1-24) Geography Rural Trend: -3.1%
Non-Urban Trend: -2.7% Over ten years, death rates for individuals ages 1-24 have been improving for individuals living in all geographic areas. Suburban Trend: -1.8% Urban Trend: -1.9%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 25-64) Gender Male Trend: +0.1%
Over ten years, the death rates for both males and females ages have been constant. Male Trend: +0.1% Female Trend: +0.1%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 25-64) Race/Ethnicity White Trend: +0.1%
Black Trend: -0.7% American Indian Trend: -0.8% Over the past 10 years, death rates for individuals of Black, American Indian and Hispanic races ages have been improving, while rates for Whites have been constant and have worsened slightly for Asians. In spite of their improving trends, these graphs demonstrates the magnitude of the persisting gap in the rates of death for working age Blacks and American Indians in Wisconsin compared with members of other racial and ethnic groups. Asian Trend: +0.7% Hispanic Trend: -0.9%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 25-64) Geography Rural Trend: +0.4%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 65+) Race/Ethnicity White Trend: -0.6%
Black Trend: -0.8% American Indian Trend: -1.1% Death rates for all races ages 65+, except for Hispanics and Asians, have been improving. This graph demonstrates the magnitude of the gap that remains in death rates for different races, with Asians and Hispanics having lower death rates than Whites, Blacks, and American Indians. Asian Trend: +0.1% Hispanic Trend: +1.5%

Death Rate per 100,000 (ages 65+) Geography Rural Trend: -0.2%
Non-Urban Trend: -0.4% Over ten years, death rates among individuals ages 65+ living in suburban and urban areas have been improving, while death rates among individuals 65+ living in rural and non-urban areas have remained constant. Suburban Trend: -0.8% Urban Trend: -1.0%

Additionally, even though the rate of infant deaths is improving for Black babies, the magnitude of the gap that remains for infant death rates for Blacks in Wisconsin compared to individuals of other racial and ethnic groups is staggering. Hispanic Trend: -2.5% Other Trend: +2.1%

Geography Rural Trend: -0.6% Non-Urban Trend: -1.8% Infant death rates for individuals living in all geographic areas except for suburban areas have been improving over the last ten years. Suburban Trend: +1.2% Urban Trend: -1.4%

Race Although trend data for children in poverty rates broken down by race is not available, looking at average rates of children in poverty by race from , reveals tremendous disparities between racial groups, with Black, American Indian/Alaskan Native and Hispanic children being the most disadvantaged, having the largest percentage of children in poverty. When rates are examined by looking at all of the children in poverty in Wisconsin, White children have the highest percentage. This is because most children in Wisconsin are White (80%).

Current health trends in health outcomes and health factors are markedly different for various subgroups within the state’s population. Efforts to improve health in Wisconsin must consider the full array of factors that influence how long and how well we live. They must begin with an analysis of the circumstances that may produce longer, healthier lives for some – but not all – of the state’s residents.
