Although some studies have reported that population change is associated with spatial mortality inequalities, few of them have tried to take a dynamic approach to the association. The aim of this study was to explore and interpret the ecological association between the change in cause-specific mortality inequalities and population change over a 30-year period in areas exhibiting different deprivation and urbanization levels in France.
