A person's age is one of the best predictors of how much longer they are likely to live. This is the main idea behind life expectancy. Life expectancy is a statistical measure of how long a person is expected to live, based on factors like age, gender, and health conditions. It is calculated using age-specific death rates and published annually in the Trustees Reports for Social Security's Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) and Disability Insurance (DI).As a person ages, their life expectancy tends to increase because they have already overcome many of the mortality risks associated with younger years, such as infant mortality, childhood diseases, accidents and other early-life threats.Studies have also shown that people are living longer. Data from the United Nations World Population Prospects shows the median life expectancy in the United States went up by more than four years from 1900 to 2025.This is due to a combination of factors, including advancements in healthcare, sanitation and a lower risk of mortality from early-life illnesses. Life expectancy calculators can provide estimates based on various factors, but it is important to note that these are probabilities, not guarantees.The Hearst Television Data team has developed a tool to estimate your life expectancy using actuarial data from the Social Security Administration. The tool also compares life expectancy 50 years ago and the projected life expectancy 50 years into the future.Check out our calculator below.
