Abstract
Differences between the suicide rates in various parts of the same country or in different parts of an urban area have frequently been investigated. Correlations between the incidence of suicides in different districts of large cities and their socio-economic characteristics have been established (Cavan, 1928; Sainsbury, 1955). Suicide rates of contrasting communities, urban and rural, have been compared (Carstairs and Brown, 1958).Keywords
