Wake Island presents a unique case when discussing life expectancy at birth, as it is an unincorporated territory of the United States with no permanent civilian population. The island is administered by the U.S. Air Force and has historically been home to a small rotating contingent of military personnel and contract workers who maintain the airfield and associated facilities.
