U.S. Small-Area Life Expectancy Estimates Project (USALEEP)

The United States Small-Area Life Expectancy Project (USALEEP) is the first public health outcome measure available nationwide at the census tract level—measuring life expectancy at birth for nearly every neighborhood in the country. USALEEP data provide unparalleled insights into community health and demonstrate that not everyone has the same opportunity to be healthy where they live. USALEEP data measures life expectancy at birth for nearly every census tract in the country and show that people living just a few miles apart may have vastly different chances of living a long life.
