List of countries and dependencies in the world ranked by life expectancy at birth, both sexes, males and females. World Population Life Expectancy with historical chart
That’s still rough. All continental states are worse than Czechia (79.23) and Albania (79.28) in 2019…
Edit: Ah no, your link was updated in 2023 but uses 2020 data, so that comparison is flawed. In 2020 that’s slightly worse than Costa Rica and Thailand.
You mean there are states that aren’t shitholes? I wasn’t aware. Sure, there’s varying orders of magnitude of shittiness, from “the vast majority of the population has been permanently priced out of home ownership, and thousands of people are living in modern day Hoovervilles” at one end, to “thousands or even millions of people live in crippling poverty and having their fundamental human rights violated and restricted daily” At the other, but it’s pretty shitty everywhere for the average American.
Alternatively, the US is a shithole country with an oppressive health care system. The current life expectancy is propped up by a few super rich states where people can actually afford to see a doctor.
I wonder how US states compare. We’re a giant country with a lot of shithole states that drag us down.
*We’re a giant shithole with a few decent states that hold us up

USA! USA! USA!
A rising tide lifts all boats. Fix healthcare federally, everyone benefits. Even the shitholes.

Looks like a max difference of five years across states, and you can guess which states are on the lower end.
