1 All-Cause Mortality, Waterloo Region and Ontario, 2010, 2011 and 2012 Table 1. Number of deaths and age-standardized mortality rate per 100,000 population, by place of residence, Waterloo Region and Ontario, 2010, 2011, and 2012 Number of deaths Mortality rate Place of residence Cambridge Kitchener 1,422 1,395 1, Waterloo North Dumfries Wellesley Wilmot Woolwich Waterloo Region 3,108 3,064 3, Ontario 89,070 89,741 90, Definition: Number and rate of deaths, both overall and for leading causes of mortality.

2 Limitations and Notes: Deaths are classified into leading causes based on the primary (i.e., underlying) cause of death, as this is the only type of cause currently available through this data source. The underlying cause of death is (a) the disease or injury which initiated the train of events leading directly to death, or (b) the circumstances of the accident or violence which produced the fatal injury. Co-morbidity contributes uncertainty to classifying the underlying cause of death. Determining true cause of death may be influenced by the social or legal conditions surrounding the death and by the level of medical investigation, e.g., AIDS, suicide. Age Standardization is a method of adjusting rates to minimize the effects that different age compositions have on populations. This method is used when comparing two or more populations. The standard 2011 Canadian population was used as the standard for the rates presented here. Table 2.
