Forecast period life expectancy; sex and age, 2015-2060

This table contains forecast figures from the period survival tables (per period of 1 year) by gender and age (on 31 December) for the population of the Netherlands. The table shows how many boys or girls from a group of 100,000 newborns will reach the age of 0, 1, 2, etc. on December 31 of the year of observation. It can also be determined how old these children will be on average if the mortality probabilities of the prognosis year apply throughout their lives. This period life expectancy can therefore best be interpreted as a summary measure of the mortality probabilities in a calendar year. See section 4 for an explanation of the difference between the period survival table and a cohort survival table. The table can be broken down into the mortality probability, the number of people alive (table population), the number of deaths (table population) and the period life expectancy by gender and age.
