(JSNA) General Overview

Northumberland is generally a healthy place, but there is variation within the county. According to national statistics the average Northumberland resident is expected to live in good health until the age of 63, which is more than 75% of their lives. However, this varies widely across the county.

In some areas of Northumberland healthy life expectancy reaches 74 years but in other areas it is as low as 51 years.  This is a useful indicator of health inequalities in Northumberland and you can find many more health indicators here.
