Life expectancy varies across regions due to factors such as healthcare access, economic conditions, education, and lifestyle choices. Countries with robust healthcare systems, better nutrition, and higher standards of living tend to have longer life expectancies. Additionally, social determinants like education and income inequality play significant roles, as they influence health outcomes and access to resources. Environmental factors, including pollution and living conditions, also contribute to these disparities.

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.
Life expectancy in the past was lower due to a variety of factors including higher infant mortality rates, limited medical knowledge and technology, higher prevalence of infectious diseases, poor sanitation, and lack of access to adequate nutrition and healthcare. Improvements in healthcare, sanitation, nutrition, and technology have contributed to the increase in life expectancy today.
