Caveats

  • 2025 figure uses provisional deaths and population — expect small revisions.
  • Life expectancy is not healthy life expectancy: years lived in poor health are included.
  • Higher means longer average lives.

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