Between 1960 and 2022, life expectancy from birth in Australia rose from approximately 71 to 83 years. While this change is small in comparison to many other countries over the given period, it is because Australia's demographic development was already among the most advanced in the world during the 20th century. Today, Australia had one of the highest life expectancies in the world.
