Life expectancy at birth for males and females, UK

between 1980 to 1982 and 2020 to 2022

1. The 2020 to 2022 life tables for Scotland are provisional. The figures for the 2010 to 2012, to 2020 to 2022 for Scotland and for the UK will be superseded once rebased populations are available from Scotland’s 2022 Census. The impact of these revisions is likely to be small for estimates of life expectancy for the UK because of the relative size of Scotland’s population compared with the UK.
