Life expectancy is the average number of years a person can expect to
live, based on current mortality rates. It serves as a key indicator of overall
community health and reflects factors such as access to healthcare, nutrition,
lifestyle, and environmental conditions. Variations in life expectancy across
different counties can reveal disparities in healthcare access, socioeconomic
status, and public health initiatives. By examining life expectancy trends, we gain valuable insights into the effectiveness of health interventions, identify areas in need of improvement, and work toward ensuring that all individuals have the opportunity to live longer, healthier lives.
