A pair of series

Death rate and life expectancy

Deaths per 1,000 people beside years at birth. One is an annual flow; the other is a lifetime stock.

Poland’s Death rate rose as society aged, then eased — while Life expectancy at birth kept climbing. Fewer deaths per thousand does not mean shorter lives; pair with Birth rate for the full balance.

Death rate

Deaths per 1,000 people. Poland rose with ageing, then fell — not the same as [life-expectancy].

The file

Deaths per 1,000 people in a given year. Annual from 1960; complements Birth rate on the same scale.

The indicator

SP.DYN.CDRT.IN rises when the population ages even if lives grow longer — compare Life expectancy at birth, not confuse them.

What the numbers show

Poland climbed above 10 as society aged, then eased. Pair with Birth rate, Deaths (GUS) and Population growth.
