Description
|
Life expectancy for 65 year old males. This is an estimate of the average number of years a person of 65 would survive if he or she experienced the particular area’s mortality rates for that time period throughout the rest of his or her life. Figures are three-year averages, produced by aggregating the number of deaths and mid-year population estimates across each three-year period to provide large enough numbers to ensure that the figures presented are sufficiently robust. Life expectancy figures are based on deaths registered in each calendar year and mid-year population estimates as the denominator.
The 2010 - 2012 to 2018 - 2020 estimates in this dataset have been updated to include rebased mid-year population estimates from mid-2012 onwards following the 2021 Census in England and Wales, and in Northern Ireland. This replaces the previously published series which used populations based on 2011 Census. |
