    Italians among those with highest healthy life expectancy in the EU

    Eurostat data certify the "luck" of being Italian. At birth, men third and women fourth for most years to live in good health

    Brussels – Is living in Italy better than other countries, or are Italians living better than Europeans? Whether it is a country issue or not, it is certain that Italian men and women are doing well, placing themselves at the top of the list for healthy life expectancy. That is, an existence without functional limitations and disabilities. Such a life span is estimated at 67 years and nine months for women and 67 years and two months for men. Numbers that place them fourth and third, respectively, in the special ranking compiled by Eurostat. 

    At birth, only in Malta and Sweden can men expect to live in good health longer than Italian males (70 years and two months and 67 years and six months, respectively). Women are expected to live longer and in good health in Malta (70 years and four months), Bulgaria (68 years and ten months) and Slovenia (68 years and six months). Italians, in essence, are among the healthiest in Europe. Credit to Italy? The Statistics Institute doesn’t say, so let us interpret the data with this reading.

    From Italy, however, a good card. The average healthy age is well above the European Union average. Looking at the data as a whole, in 2022, the number of healthy life years at birth in the Union averaged 62 years and seven months. Translated by gender: 62 years and ten months for women and 62 years and five months for men. In short, Italians teach how to enjoy life and avoid the doctor despite having one of the oldest populations in Europe.
