Life expectancy is the average age of death for a hypothetical cohort of newborns if they experienced the age-specific mortality rates of one particular year throughout their entire lives. It's a snapshot reflecting mortality rates in a given year that does not account for any future changes in those rates.

Healthy life expectancy at birth, defined by the World Health Organization as the average number of years a person can expect to live in full health, is 64.8 years in Bhutan and 63.9 in the United States. People who reach age 60 can expect an additional 15.7 healthy years in Bhutan and 15.7 in the United States.

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 Bhutan can expect to live to 76 years compared to 81 in the United States, rising to 80.2 and 85.2 at 65, and to 86.4 and 89.7 at 80 — higher than the 73.8 and 79.8 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in Bhutan and the United States.

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 Bhutan, the most common age of death is 81, compared to 89 in the United States. The median age of death is 77.6 in Bhutan and 83.9 in the United States, 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 Bhutan and the United States more than their death rates.
