The survival curve

Hawaii United States

Share of men still alive at each age, from birth. The orange dots mark the age half reach. This is our estimate, not a CDC table.

Half of men in Hawaii reach about 84, which is well above the 77.0 at the top of this page. Two things explain the difference. Deaths at young ages pull an average down further than they move the halfway mark. And the curve is built on the 2023 national table, while the published state figures are from 2021, a pandemic year when life expectancy was lower.

If you've already made it this far

Life expectancy at birth counts everyone, including those who die young. A man in Hawaii who has already reached one of these ages can expect more.

Where the numbers come from

Life expectancy at birth, the rank, and the gap are from the CDC's U.S. State Life Tables, 2021 (National Vital Statistics Reports, Vol. 73, No. 7). The curve and the table by age are this site's estimates: they apply Hawaii's 2021 gap from the national figure to the Social Security 2023 life table. How the math works.
