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 life. It is a snapshot reflecting mortality rates at a given year that does not account for any future changes in these 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 54.6 years in Burkina Faso and 70 in the Netherlands. People who reach age 60 can expect an additional 12.4 healthy years in Burkina Faso and 17.8 in the Netherlands.

Remaining life expectancy by current age

Life expectancy is often mistaken for the average lifespan of an adult. An adult has already survived early-age mortality causes and is expected to have a longer lifespan than calculated from birth.

The life expectancy from current ages in Burkina Faso vs the Netherlands: 70.2 years vs 83.1 at 30, 77.4 vs 85.5 at 65, 84.8 vs 89.2 at 80 — significantly higher than the 61.6 vs 82.6 years calculated at birth.

Odds of living to age in Burkina Faso vs Netherlands

The chart below shows the odds of living to all ages starting from birth. Of the newborn cohort, 68.5% in Burkina Faso and 94.6% in the Netherlands are expected to survive till at least 60 years old, 50.9% and 86.8% will live to 70 years or older, 21.9% and 68.9% to 80+ years, and 2.05% and 29.6% will live past 90 years old.

For longevity rates starting from an age other than 0, use the probability of survival to an age calculator provided above.

The chart above shows the number of deaths by age and gender per a 100,000 cohort of newborns, illustrating the distribution of expected mortality throughout life.

Note that the graph above does not represent rates per 100,000 population, as this would be skewed by age distribution and reveal more about Burkina Faso and the Netherlands demographics than the death rate. It also does not represent rates per 100,000 people in an age group, as this would be just the probability of death.
