- Life expectancy at birth for newborns in 2022 was 77.5 years, an increase from 2021, but still lower than the expected 78.8 years for those born in 2019, according to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
- The biggest increase in life expectancy from 2021 was observed for non-Hispanic American Indians, by 2.3 years, followed by an increase of 2.2 years for Hispanic newborns.
