Anyone who is already 67 years old lives Data material According to the study, the average life expectancy for men in Bavaria is 16.4 years and for women 19.3 years. Life expectancy has thus fallen slightly compared to the mortality table from 2020/2022.

Corona Effect

This means an opposite effect to the whole of Germany – life expectancy has increased slightly across Germany for the first time since the Corona pandemic. Corona had pushed life expectancy down somewhat due to the increased number of deaths.

However, in a longer-term comparison, life expectancy has increased significantly – it has even doubled since the first Bavarian mortality table in 1891/1900. In comparison with the general mortality table for 1986/1988, which was calculated on the basis of the 1987 census, the life expectancy of newborns has also increased significantly. At that time, the life expectancy for a newborn boy in Bavaria was 72.4 years and for a newborn girl 78.7 years.

The difference between the sexes has existed since the beginning of calculations. However, according to statisticians’ calculations, this gender difference decreases with age. According to the general mortality table 2021/2023, newborn girls live 4.6 years longer than newborn boys. For 67-year-olds, the difference in the average number of years of life that can still be expected is only 2.9 years.
