Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a sovereign country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands. Australia is the largest country by area in Oceania and the world's sixth-largest country.
Key statistics
Life expectancy at birth was 81.3 years for males and 85.4 years for females in 2019-21.
Over the past five decades, life expectancy in Australia has increased by 13.7 years for males (to 81.3) and by 11.2 years for females (to 85.4). The report found more people are living past 100, with people aged 100 or older making up . 08% of deaths in 1964, and 1.4% of deaths by 2021.
1. In Australia, a boy born in 2019–2021 can expect to live to the age of 81.3 years and a girl would be expected to live to 85.4 years compared to 51.1 for boys and 54.8 years for girls born in in 1891–1900.
Life expectancy at birth for women in the United States dropped 0.8 years from 79.9 years in 2020 to 79.1 in 2021, while life expectancy for men dropped one full year, from 74.2 years in 2020 to 73.2 in 2021.
At the end of the study, about 16 percent of the men and about 34 percent of the women survived to the age of 90. In fact, the authors found that women who were taller than 5 feet 9 inches were 31 percent more likely to reach 90, compared to those who were under 5 feet 3 inches.

Individuals should plan for living well beyond the average – to age 95 or even 100 – especially those in good health. For non-smokers in excellent health, there is almost one in three chance that women will live to age 95 or beyond and one in five chance that men will live to age 95 or beyond.
Women's life expectancy was 79 years in the U.S. in 2021, while men's was about 73, according to CDC data. The U.S. has a higher rate of avoidable deaths, which is measured as death before the age of 75, among men than any comparable country.
Total population aged 90 years and over
In 2020, population aged 90+ years for Australia was 203.28 thousand persons. Population aged 90+ years of Australia increased from 18.56 thousand persons in 1971 to 203.28 thousand persons in 2020 growing at an average annual rate of 5.13%.
And if you have reached the age of 85, you still need to plan on having quite a few more years. According to the Australian Life Tables 2015–17, a male aged 85 on average can expect to live an additional 6.40 years, while a female aged 85 on average should expect to live an additional 7.37 years.
There are now about 4,250 people aged 100 years or older living in Australia. By 2050, statisticians believe Australia will have more than 50,000 people aged 100 and over. For many seniors, this means more years of being active and being a valuable part of the community.
Australia Average Number of Dependent Children in Household: Multiple Family data was reported at 1.200 Person in 2020. This records a decrease from the previous number of 1.400 Person for 2018.
Chances are higher you'll live longer if you have type O blood. Experts think your lowered risk of disease in your heart and blood vessels (cardiovascular disease) may be one reason for this.
U.S. life expectancy at birth
On average, a person living in the U.S. can expect to live to 76.1 years. Asian people have the longest average life expectancy (83.5 years) and American Indian/Alaska Natives the shortest (65.2 years).
Japanese life expectancy
This low mortality is mainly attributable to a low rate of obesity, low consumption of red meat, and high consumption of fish and plant foods such as soybeans and tea. In Japan, the obesity rate is low (4.8% for men and 3.7% for women).
Simply put, some scientists calculate the probability of you existing exactly as you are, at this very moment, at one in 400 trillion [or 4×1014]).
The path begins with the odds of your dad meeting your mom (1 in 20,000). This is multiplied by the chances of them staying together long enough to have kids (1 in 2,000), and so on... The probability of you existing at all comes out to 1 in 102,685,000 — yes, that's a 10 followed by 2,685,000 zeroes!
The definition of tragedy does not hinge on a particular age, it hinges on circumstances. It is tragic when a 10-year-old dies of leukemia. It is tragic when a burglar breaks into the home of a 90-year-old man and murders him for the $20 he has in his wallet.
Is there a moment in a person's life when they feel most fulfilled, happiest, or in their prime? Again, the most obvious answer to some might be somewhere around 25. But survey data from YouGov suggest that many consider the prime age to actually be 37.
Recent brain research indicates that birth to age three are the most important years in a child's development. Here are some tips to consider during your child's early years: Be warm, loving, and responsive.
Humans have a maximum known lifespan of about 120 years, but this was excluded from their calibration data for being too much of an outlier. According to the paper, which was published in Nature Scientific Reports, “this does not reflect the variability [of] the true global average lifespan (60.9–86.3 years).”
