List of German states by life expectancy

Summary

The official statistics of Germany, available on the Destatis website, do not include total life expectancy for the population as a whole. For a more correct comparison of regions with various differences in life expectancy for men and women, a column with the arithmetic mean of these indicators was added to the tables.

Life expectancy in the German states in 2020/2022 for male[1][2]
Life expectancy in the German states in 2020/2022 for female[1][3]
