National life tables

Table 1 contains period life expectancy for Scotland back to 1861-70. Each life expectancy figure is based on aggregate mortality rates for the groups of years shown.

Table 2 shows extracts from the most recent Scottish National Life Tables (also known as period life tables or ungraduated life tables) for selected ages.
