This study has been performed to analyze natural variations of mortality and life depreciation in the United since 1960s. The data on death rates from U. S. Vital statistics and National Census were used for the analysis. In this study, male-to-female ratios of death rates have been investigated per racial groups over the life cycle. It is suppported that despite higher male-to female ratios of Whites over most of life stages, weighted calculations prove that male mortality is higher for non-whites than other racial and sex groups in America. It is also found that extremely old age groups (85+) show the lowest Male-to-Female ratio of death rates in general.
