The starkest differences in death rates are not by race or gender, but by level of education. People with only a high school degree or less have a *350%* higher annual rate of death than others. That's not a typo. pic.twitter.com/skX8MjK9dl

On page 12 of the Pdf about MASS Death Report 2016 it says:

"Among Massachusetts residents ages 25-64, the death rate for those who completed high school or less was more than three times higher than the corresponding rate among those who completed education above high school (Table 5)."
