Non-Maori Population

WARNING: The quality of the data for 1876-1921 are lower than in later years and should be used with caution. The most inconsistent are mortality estimates at older ages for 1876-1902. These problems occur due to a possible undercount of deaths and other quality issues found in the original data. Currently we are working on a methodological solution that will help resolve this problem. For details, please see the Background and Documentation (for Non-Maori Population).
