Annotation	This 2004 report includes a focus on the health of London's black and minority ethnic (BME) communities. As in the 2002 and 2003 reviews, this report highlights important inequalities in health, and the factors that influence health. It adds to information in those reviews on the ten high level indicators in the London Health Strategy. Of the ten indicators, those most relevant to older people's health are: proportion of homes judged unfit to live in; burglary rate per 1000 population; air quality indicators; road traffic casualty rate per 1000 resident population; life expectancy at birth; and proportion of people with self-assessed fair, poor or bad health.
