Data for 2004

Mortality Rate, Ages 5–14, 2004

2004, as UN IGME’s 2025 release gives it · stored as published, never rewritten

This is the chance that a child who has reached five dies before fifteen, out of every thousand. Deaths at these ages are far rarer than in early childhood — injuries, drowning, infectious disease and, where it strikes, war — and this measure picks up where under-five mortality stops.

Mortality Rate, Ages 5–14, 2004 covers 200 countries on 3 measures. Niger is highest, at 51.4581; Luxembourg is lowest, at 0.6388. The middle country reads 4.1618. Against 2003, 199 values changed (20 up, 179 down), the same countries are covered.

Read before you use

How values are stored

  • One year of the 2025 release

    Every year in this series comes from UN IGME’s 2025 release, recalculated on one method, so a change from one year to the next is not a revision. It can differ from what was first published for 2004.

  • Nothing missing

    Every one of the 200 countries has every column.
