Reference excerpt

Regions of European countries are listed by life expectancy in the following lists.

Estimate of Eurostat (2014—2023)

Table This is a list of European regions (Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics regions) according to estimation of Eurostat. Eurostat calculates the life expectancy based on the information provided by national statistics institutes affiliated to Eurostat. The list presents statistics for 2014—2023, as of 24 June 2025. By default, regions within country are sorted by overall life expectancy in 2023. Countries are sorted by the most favorable for life expectancy region inside them. Data for some regions are marked at the Eurostat site as provisional or estimated.

Estimate of the Global Data Lab (2019—2022) This is a list of European regions according to estimation of the Global Data Lab, as of 12 October 2024. The data is filtered according to the list of countries in Europe. By default, regions within country are sorted by overall life expectancy in 2022. Countries are sorted by the most favorable for life expectancy region inside them.

* De facto there are two states on the island Cyprus: the Republic of Cyprus (~70% of the island's population) and Northern Cyprus, recognized only by Turkey. Due to national, cultural, economic, natural and climatic features, life expectancy in them can differ. ** Statistics for the Southern Federal District of Russia and for Ukraine are given based on consideration that Crimea is part of Ukraine. According to Rosstat estimates, the life expectancy in Crimea in these years is close to the average life expectancy in the Southern FD. Taking into account amount of population in Crimea, inclusion of Crimea in one or another territory affects the statistics of these territories only within a tenth of a year. *** Parts of these Georgian regions are inside South Ossetia - a disputed territory, de facto this is a partially recognised state. There are no available data on life expectancy in South Ossetia, the statistics for the mentioned Georgian regions are given without the statistics for South Ossetia. **** Kosovo is a disputed territory. De facto this is a partially recognised state. The statistics for Serbia are given without taking into account the statistics for Kosovo.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with List of European regions by life expectancy

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what List of European regions by life expectancy claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to List of European regions by life expectancy before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about List of European regions by life expectancy ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of List of European regions by life expectancy

In research: List of European regions by life expectancy appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses List of European regions by life expectancy in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: List of European regions by life expectancy is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Demographic lists, Demographics of Europe, Europe health-related lists, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for List of European regions by life expectancy outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
