Rankings · Life expectancy
Life expectancy at birth, council by council
Every council with a published figure, ranked within its own nation and tier, separately for men and women. Each figure is shown with its ONS 95% confidence interval and compared with the figure for its nation.
How to read these rankings. Rank 1 is the highest figure in the group. Councils with the same figure share a rank, marked “=”, and the next rank is skipped. Ranks describe the published estimates, not a verdict on a council.
Each figure is an estimate with a 95% confidence interval. Councils next to each other in a ranking are often within each other’s intervals, so a difference of a few places may not reflect a real difference. The comparison column says above or below the nation only when the council’s interval and the nation’s do not overlap, and similar when they do. Methodology §03 explains why.
