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 Ireland can expect to live to 83.5 years compared to 83.4 in New Zealand, rising to 85.8 and 85.9 at 65, and to 89.5 and 89.5 at 80 — higher than the 82.9 and 82.5 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in Ireland and New Zealand.

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 94.5% of newborns in Ireland and 93.5% in New Zealand are expected to live past 60, 87.3% and 86.5% past 70, 69.4% and 69.4% past 80, and only 31.7% and 31.5% 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 Ireland, the most common age of death is 89, compared to 89 in New Zealand. The median age of death is 85.7 in Ireland and 85.8 in New Zealand, 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 Ireland and New Zealand more than their death rates.
