Life Expectancy by U.S. Congressional District This article presents life expectancy at birth for the 435 United States congressional districts plus Washington, DC (non-voting district). Life expectancy varies from an average 83.9 years in California's District 19 to 72.9 years in Kentucky's District 5 (rural southeastern Kentucky), a gap of almost 11 years. Life expectancy is calculated using 2011 mortality data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and population data from the U.S. Census Bureau. These estimates were taken from the Measure of America's report Geographies of Opportunity.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Geographies of Opportunity )〕 Life expectancies can have pronounced differences even in districts that are only hours apart and can highlight inequalities even within the same state.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Index Highlights Southern Congressional Districts' Socioeconomic Inequality - US News )〕 For example, residents of Pennsylvania's Congressional District 16, which stretches from the far western suburbs of Philadelphia beyond to Lancaster County (Amish country) and Elizabethtown, have a life expectancy of 80.5 years, about one and half years longer than the U.S. average. In Pennsylvania's District 2, made up predominantly of city neighborhoods in West, Northwest, and North Philly, the average resident has a life expectancy of just 75.6 years. Because life expectancy at birth is not regularly calculated and made public in the United States at anything more specific than the level of states, except by Measure of America, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, and a few other organizations, these large differences do not get the attention they deserve. == References ==
