Summary

IHME research, published in Population Health Metrics in July 2013, provides life expectancy data by county and sex in the United States from 1985-2010. The study, "Left Behind: Widening Disparities for Men and Women in US County Life Expectancy, 1985-2010," examines large disparities seen in life expectancy across communities. A previous study done by IHME provided US state and county life expectancy numbers by sex and race for the years 1987-2009.
