The age standardized rate of PYLL significantly increased with each material deprivation quintile on average from 2011 to 2015 in Middlesex-London. The rate for those that lived in the most well-off neighbourhoods was almost a third (Q1; 12.4/1,000 population) that of the most material deprived neighbourhoods (Q5: 36.1/1,000 population). This is a rate difference of 23.7 PYLL per 1,000 population.
