Abstract
The United States is facing a growing problem in inequality in terms of income which has dictated the course of the country’s economic growth. In order to study the relationship of income and mortality rate in the United States, this study considers retirement, unemployment, reductions in work hours, widowhood, separation and divorce as variables. These factors affect the household income of an American family. The study focuses on the changes recorded in life expectancy of an individual and death rates according to age. The study also focuses on the macroeconomic variables of the United States for the past 25 years and the inequality in the household income distribution. And then, this study deals with the relationship of mortality to household income.
