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 years in Cameroon and 45.4 in the Central African Republic. People who reach age 60 can expect an additional 12.2 healthy years in Cameroon and 9.03 in the Central African Republic.

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 Cameroon vs the Central African Republic: 70.9 years vs 67 at 30, 78.1 vs 77.9 at 65, 85.7 vs 86.3 at 80 — significantly higher than the 64.2 vs 57.9 years calculated at birth.

Odds of living to age in Cameroon vs Central African Republic

The chart below shows the odds of living to all ages starting from birth. Of the newborn cohort, 71.2% in Cameroon and 58.1% in the Central African Republic are expected to survive till at least 60 years old, 53.6% and 40.2% will live to 70 years or older, 25.3% and 19.3% to 80+ years, and 4.09% and 3.95% 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 Cameroon and the Central African Republic 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.
