What this means

Female healthy life expectancy at birth in County Durham was 55.4 years in 2022–24. This uses the period’s mortality rates and self-reported good health, not a prediction for an individual. Do not subtract it from the single-year 2025 life expectancy figure.

95% confidence interval: 51.7–59.0 years.

Caveats

  • ‘Good health’ is self-reported in a survey.
  • Wide interval (51.7–59): compare years cautiously.
  • Higher means more years in good health.

Missing or suppressed values are never shown as zero — every card above passed validation with a real numeric value.
