Abstract

In a study of the geographical distribution of 22 population characteristics in metropolitan Sydney, perinatla mortality was found to coincide with adverse socioeconomic conditions, juvenile and adult crime, child neglect and high birth rate. The findings suggested that in areas with specific population characteristics there is a need for long-term and short-term preventive measures, both social and medical.
