Inequalities in mortality associated with housing conditions in Belgium between 1991 and 2020
National Register in Belgium and relative to deaths that occurred between Jan. 1, 1991, and Dec. 31, 2020. Spatial and time-specific housing deprivation indices (1991, 2001, and 2011) were created at the ...
