  1. Spatial GC/CI rankings are based on regional average income.
  2. Spatial inequalities indicate the GC and the CI calculated across regions.
  3. Percentiles were obtained through bootstrapping simulations with 1,000 replications.
  4. CI: The CI of ill-health scores.
  5. CI*: The CI of indirectly standardized ill-health scores by age and gender.
  6. GC: The Gini Coefficient.
