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 the United States can expect to live to 81 years compared to 78.1 in Vietnam, rising to 85.2 and 82.6 at 65, and to 89.7 and 88.1 at 80 — higher than the 79.8 and 75 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in the United States and Vietnam.

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 the United States, the most common age of death is 89, compared to 84 in Vietnam. The median age of death is 83.9 in the United States and 79.9 in Vietnam, 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 the United States and Vietnam more than their death rates.
