Australia compares very well with other nations for life expectancy, according to United Nations estimates.

For males, Australia has the joint fourth-highest life expectancy in the world (along with Switzerland) over the period 2005-10. Only Iceland, Japan and Hong Kong have higher male life expectancy than Australia.

Australia also has the joint third-highest female life expectancy. As in most countries, female life expectancy is higher than male life expectancy in Australia. However, in countries badly affected by HIV/AIDS (including Swaziland, Mozambique and Zimbabwe), males have similar or higher life expectancy than women.
