Description
Deaths are generally counted on the basis of the area of usual residence of the deceased if that is in Scotland, otherwise they are counted on the basis of the place of death. However, a death may be allocated to the deceased's former area of residence, if that is in Scotland and the deceased had lived at his/her usual residence for less than 12 months.
