"Unraveling the Disparities: A Geographical, Economic, and Ethnic Perspective on Life Expectancy in the U.S."

Info

According to a recent comprehensive study on health disparities in the United States, the notion of a single "American" life expectancy is a misleading oversimplification.

The research, which has been dubbed the "10 Americas" analysis, paints a far more nuanced and complex picture of how life expectancy is shaped by a multitude of geographic, socioeconomic, and ethnic factors.

The study, conducted by a team of renowned public health experts, reveals stark divides in longevity across different regions, income levels, and racial/ethnic groups within the country.

For instance, residents of the "Elite Counties" cluster, primarily consisting of affluent urban and suburban areas, enjoy an average life expectancy of 87 years – a full 15 years longer than those living in the "High-Mortality Counties," which are typically rural, impoverished, and have large minority populations. - https://webmdnetwork.com/blog/life-expectancy-10-americas/?unique_id_ppkrv328
