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.

Taiwan vs United States life expectancy calculator

This life expectancy calculator shows the odds of living to 100, 95, 90, and below based on current age for both males and females in Taiwan and the United States, along with mean and median age of death.

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 Taiwan can expect to live to 81.9 years compared to 81 in the United States, rising to 85.4 and 85.2 at 65, and to 89.6 and 89.7 at 80 — higher than the 81.1 and 79.8 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in Taiwan 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 Taiwan, the most common age of death is 87, compared to 89 in the United States. The median age of death is 84.3 in Taiwan 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 Taiwan and the United States more than their death rates.
