Death rates

Death rates tend to be higher in areas where there are proportionately more elderly residents. The younger population concentrates around the Twin Cities, St. Cloud and Rochester, and in college counties such as Clay, Stevens and Blue Earth. The older population is clustered in the western and southern counties, where elderly residents have stayed in place, and in the northern counties, where many retirees have moved.
