Portsmouth residents can expect shorter lives than the England average
Men in Portsmouth can expect to live 78.0 years and women 82.5: 1.7 and 1.0 years less than in England (2023–25, provisional). Of those years, about 57.5 for men and 58.6 for women are spent in good health, 3.4 and 2.7 fewer than England (2022–24). Inside the city, life expectancy is an estimated 9.4 years lower for men, and 7.8 for women, in the most deprived areas than the least deprived. 12.7% of adults smoked in 2025, against 9.5% in England.

Life expectancy gap between richer and poorer areas
This is not an age. It is the difference in life expectancy between the most and least deprived parts of the city. For example, a 5-year gap would mean people in the poorest neighbourhoods are expected to live about 5 years less than those in the most affluent. Official name: inequality in life expectancy at birth (slope index of inequality).
Men: 9.4-year gap (England 10.4) · Women: 7.8-year gap (England 8.0) 2022–24. The gap in years between the most and least deprived parts of each area.
