Life Expectancy by Census Tract Income Percentile Prepandemic Years Higher census tract income was associated with longer life expectancy in every year (Figure 2 and Table). In 2019, life expectancy ranged from 75.90 years in the lowest income group of census tracts (lowest 1%) to 87.42 years ...
Life expectancy in the U.S. varies widely when analyzed at the census-tract level and the method may provide a more detailed picture of health disparities in the U.S. than other widely used analyses of life expectancy, according to new research led by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public ...

Census Bureau.17 The life expectancy during 2002 to 2008 was estimated for males and females separately for each county. We used mean life expectancy between 2002 and 2008 for males and females for each county as the health outcome measure. Demographic Characteristics, So...
Despite improvements in the racial gap, inequality in life expectancy by class and income still remains. The CDC has begun publishing estimates of life expectancy at the census-tract (or neighbourhood) level. Life expectancy at the 90th percentile is 83.1 years compared with 73.1 years at the ...
Community conditions contributing to high life expectancy: An analysis of outliersLife expectancy (LE) varies substantially across U.S. communities and even neighborhoods. Place-based characteristics play an important role, but few studies have used a fine geographic scale to identify local assets that...
least one Superfund site, the adverse effect of this presence was more severe on the ones with higher sociodemographic disadvantage. For instance, the presence of a Superfund site in a census tract with smaller than median income ($52,580) could reduce life expectancy by as much as seven ...
Although 89% of Census tracts were included in the analysis, it is possible that more rural areas (eg, farming and agricultural communities) may have low opportunity but long life expectancy. Fourth, Census tract boundaries may differ from how individuals perceive their neighborhoods, which should ...
Few studies have investigated the change in life expectancy (LE) and the healthy lifespan among patients with advanced schistosomiasis. This study was to evaluate the LE and healthy life expectancy (HLE) for patients and assess the mechanism responsible for the LE inequality. Methods We utilized ...
