Life expectancy at birth in Los Angeles County is projected to be 3.6 years longer than life expectancy for all babies born in America.
Also see: Death & Death Rates in Los Angeles County
The future cannot be predicted, and anticipated medical advances or environmental improvements may affect how likely an infant born today is to survive into old age. Life expectancy estimates are calculated based on the assumption that future mortality rates at each age will remain exactly as they are today.
