These investigators found that the death rates in the northern industrial towns were about 20% above the national average. In contrast, the more affluent areas in the rural south and east had heart disease death rates that were 20% below the national average. The pattern of death rates from coronary heart disease among adults paralleled that for infant mortality a half century earlier. One in 10 newborns died in the first year of life in the industrial north compared with one in 20 in the rural south and east.
