L.E.: Life Expectancy
C.I.(95%): 95 percent Confidence Interval
 
Life expectancy is the average number of additional years that someone at a given age would be expected to live
if current mortality conditions remained constant throughout their lifetime
N/A means that the live expectancy estimate is suppressed due to (1) a total population (over all age intervals) of
less than 1,000 or (2) any age interval population estimate less than 10.
