ON THE SANITARY CONDITION OF
The Strand District forms one of the Central Group.
Appended to this Report are Tables A and B required by
the Local Government Board, together with Tables showing the
causes of death in the Strand District, and in each of its SubDistricts
at various groups of ages, and distinguishing males and
females Tables Y, VI, and XII.
From these Tables it may be seen that 544 deaths occurred
in the District; 241 of these were of persons who did not belong
thereto, and 211 persons belonging to the District died outside
its bounds. 147 inhabitants of the District died in Poor Law
Institutions, 15 in Lunatic Asylums, 0 in Fever Hospitals and
88 in General and Special Hospitals; thus 48.6 per cent. of
the deaths of residents occurred in Public Institutions (41.9
in St. Anne, 53.2 in Strand Sub-District); 28.1 per cent. of the
deaths in all London were under similar circumstances.

Table VI. shows the death rates per 1,000 persons at various
groups of ages, as estimated from the number of persons living
at these ages at the census. It also shows the deaths of males
and females in the sub-districts, and gives the rates for the
preceding 10 years for comparison.
