Life expectancy is often mistaken for the average lifespan of an adult. However, an adult has already survived the causes of early-age mortality and can expect to live longer than the figure calculated at birth.

A 30-year-old in the Bahamas can expect to live to 77.2 years compared to 70.6 in South Africa, rising to 83.2 and 80.7 at 65, and to 89.4 and 88.8 at 80 — higher than the 75 and 66.7 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in the Bahamas and South Africa.

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 82.7% of newborns in the Bahamas and 68.7% in South Africa are expected to live past 60, 69.6% and 51.6% past 70, 47.9% and 30.2% past 80, and only 19.9% and 11.3% past 90.

This chart shows the number of deaths by age up to 100 for 3 cohorts of 100,000 newborns each — male, female, and both combined — illustrating how expected mortality is distributed throughout life.

In the Bahamas, the most common age of death is 84, compared to 77 in South Africa. The median age of death is 79.2 in the Bahamas and 70.8 in South Africa, meaning only half of each cohort is expected to live past that age.

Note that this chart does not show rates per 100,000 population, as those would be skewed by age structure differences and reflect the demographics of the Bahamas and South Africa more than their death rates.
