About 95% of the "place of death" information in the New York State Death Index was able to be standardized and matched to a known locality (town, city, county). The graph below, and its data counts, do not include the approximately 5% of death index records where the location was illegible or could not be easily matched. Information about a person's usual residence at the time of their death is only available in the state death index from 1957 onwards.
