Life expectancy at birth on Saint Helena is notably high for such a small, remote island territory, reflecting the community's access to healthcare services, its stable social environment, and its relatively low-stress way of life. Estimates place the overall life expectancy for residents of Saint Helena, Ascension, and Tristan da Cunha at approximately 80 years, with women generally living longer than men — a pattern consistent with global trends.
