United States Life Tables, 2023

This report presents complete period life tables for the United States by Hispanic origin and race and sex, based on age-specific death rates in 2023.

Data used to prepare the 2023 life tables are 2023 final mortality statistics; July 1, 2023, population estimates based on the blended base population estimates produced by the U.S. Census Bureau; and 2023 Medicare data for people ages 66-99. The methodology used to estimate the life tables for the Hispanic population remains unchanged from that developed for the publication of life tables by Hispanic origin for data year 2006. The same methodology is used to estimate the life tables for the American Indian and Alaska Native non-Hispanic and Asian non-Hispanic populations. The methodology used to estimate the 2023 life tables for all other groups was first implemented with data year 2008.
