The Gini coefficient is insensitive to the shape of the income distribution within geographical areas, so that a high Gini coefficient could result from either a high proportion of people with very low incomes or very high incomes.

In order to be consistent with prior work on the shape of the association of income and mortality [ 6, 8, 9] we modelled mortality for women and men separately.
