Sammanfattning
Around 2005, life expectancy was 2.5 years higher in Molde than in Arendal. It is remarkable that Norwegian cities that are fairly similar in terms of size, income level and population composition have differing levels of mortality. Could differences in the quality of their health services possibly play a role? Furthermore, is the classification of causes of death sufficiently precise?
