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.

Marshall Islands vs United States life expectancy calculator

This life expectancy calculator assesses the odds of living to 100, 95, 90, and below based on the current age for both males and females in the Marshall Islands and the United States, also providing mean and median age of death. The calculations are based on the 2025 life tables (actuarial tables) from the UN World Population Prospects.


Mean remaining life expectancy:
40.9 vs 50.8 years

Mean expected age of death:

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 the Marshall Islands vs the United States: 70.9 years vs 80.8 at 30, 78.2 vs 85.1 at 65, 85.9 vs 89.6 at 80 — significantly higher than the 67.2 vs 79.6 years calculated at birth.

Odds of living to age in Marshall Islands vs United States

The chart below shows the odds of living to all ages starting from birth. Of the newborn cohort, 74.5% in the Marshall Islands and 89% in the United States are expected to survive till at least 60 years old, 55% and 79.2% will live to 70 years or older, 26.4% and 60.7% to 80+ years, and 4.77% and 27.7% 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 the Marshall Islands and the United States 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.
