Life expectancy at birth by race and sex, United StatesCDC/NCHS, National Vital Statistics System. In 2009, the average life expectancy of black men and women in the United States was just 75. That's roughly the same as the average life expectancy of white men and women in 1979 â 30 years earlier. The average life expectancy of black men in 2009 was just 71 (compared to 76 for white men). While such a significant gap is troubling, the 2009 black/white life expectancy gap was actually at an all-time low of 4 years. In 1950, that gap was almost twice as large.
Over 22,000 people were included in the study, of whom 10,366 died. On average, life expectancy after diagnosis increased from 10.5 years in 1996 to 22.5 years in 2005. HIV-positive women, overall, had a longer life expectancy than men (23.6 years for women in 2005, compared to 21.8 years for men). Among men, the greatest improvements in life expectancy were experienced by white men. Black men diagnosed in 2005 could expect to live for five years less than their white counterparts.
