Methodology

Male and female life expectancy at birth are the ONS period estimates for the 2017-19 reference period, from the ONS β€œLife expectancy by local authority” dataset. Healthy life expectancy at birth is from the ONS β€œHealth state life expectancies (Healthy life expectancy), UK” release for 2022-24. The two measures use different reference periods and partially different geographies, so they are not directly subtractable. Every figure is taken directly from the ONS files; no value is estimated, fabricated or altered.
