Some fictions says age of a person depends on area of the person where
he is born, and on the other hand some myths from science says it
depends on the genetics of the person, the breed from where the person
is born, but there are some realistic people, who believe that age
depends on the physical fitness and the stamina of the person and not on
any of the factors mentioned before.
The reality is that every specific area on the Planet Earth has its own
average age of living, that differs a long run with other areas, we have
collected the list of top 10 countries where the average age of a
common man is way high. So, which country made into the list, see below!
1- Andorra
Average age: 83.51 Years
Located between France and Spain, Andorra was one of Europe’s poorest
countries until it became a popular tourist destination afterWorld War
II. Its 71,000 inhabitants now enjoy all the benefits of a thriving
economy, which include excellent nutrition and public health care
facilities.
2 - Macau
Average age: 82.19 Years
This island in the South China Sea is reaping the rewards of a booming
economy. The money has come from visitors, particularly from the Chinese
mainland, coming to take advantage of a recently liberalized gaming
industry. Gambling profits now provide about 70 percent of the country’s
income, and the government uses the money to invest heavily in public
health care.
3 - San Marino
Average age: 81.71 Years (tied)
This enclave in central Italy is the third smallest state in Europe
(after Vatican City and Monaco), as well as the world’s oldest republic.
Here, the long life expectancy is due to prosperity and the fact that
the majority of the population is involved in office-based work rather
than heavy industry and labor, which shorten life spans.
4 - Singapore
Average age: 81.71 Years (tied)
Aside from prosperity, one factor in Singapore’s long average life
expectancy is that in the early 1980s, the government recognized that it
had an aging population, with the average age of its citizens
increasing steadily. The government planned accordingly, and
nowSingapore has excellent health care facilities for the elderly.
5 - Hong Kong
Average age: 81.59 Years
People in Hong Kong generally eat a healthful and balanced diet, based
around rice, vegetables and tofu, with only small amounts of meat. This
means that obesity rates are low, as are the rates for most
dietary-based cancers and heart disease.
6 - Japan
Average age: 81.25 Years
Japan has one of the lowest adult obesity rates in the industrialized
world, at only 3 percent. As in Hong Kong, this is mainly due to a
healthful diet based around vegetables, fish, rice and noodles. Many
Japanese people also stop eating when they feel about 80 percent full,
rather than continuing until they can’t manage another mouthful. The
Japanese are also much less reliant on cars than people in Western
countries, preferring to walk whenever possible, and therefore get
plenty of exercise.
6.9 - Canada
Average age: 80.96488
7 - Sweden
Average age: 80.51 Years (tied)
Although an economic downturn in the late 1990s did some damage to
Sweden’s world-renowned welfare and public health systems, they are
still among the best in the world. Also, Sweden has the lowest rate of
smokers in the developed world — about 17 percent — so tobacco-related
deaths are half the European average.
8 - Switzerland
Average age: 80.51 (tied)
Aside from a stable economy with all of the usual factors that increase
longevity, such as a healthful diet and high standard of health
care,Switzerland’s much-vaunted neutrality means that its inhabitants
are highly unlikely to die in an armed conflict.
9 - Australia
Average age: 80.50 Years
All the usual factors relating to prosperity apply here, but the life
expectancy of indigenous Australians is about 20 years less than that of
white Aussies, due to higher rates of just about every factor that
shortens life, including smoking, obesity and poverty. Incidentally,
research suggests that Australia’s life expectancy may start falling as
obesity reaches epidemic proportions in the land down under.
10 - Guernsey
Average age: 80.42 Years
The island of Guernsey, located in the English Channel, is a British
Crown dependency, but it’s not part of the U.K. The reason for its high
life expectancy is simple: It’s extremely wealthy. Very low taxes make
Guernsey a popular destination for tax exiles who can afford the very
best in nutrition and medical care. More than half of the island’s
income comes from financial services — which means well-paid desk jobs —
with very few people working in heavy industry.
