Revealed: Shocking 15-year life expectancy gap across London - what it is in your area?

An interactive map reveals the striking differences in life expectancy across communities in London.

New ONS figures, published by campaign coalition Health Equals , suggest there is a 15-year life expectancy gap between neighbourhoods across the capital.

East Village in Stratford, east London, had the lowest average life expectancy at 73 years, while Marylebone and Park Lane in Westminster had the highest at 89.

The next lowest was Old Oak and Wormwood in Hammersmith and Fulham, with a life expectancy of 74, followed by Poplar West in Tower Hamlets at 75.

At the other end of the scale, several neighbourhoods had an average life expectancy of 88 years.

These included Hans Town, Knightsbridge, Belgravia, Notting Hill South and Holland Park in Kensington and Chelsea ; Hyde Park in Westminster; Pinner South in Harrow; and World’s End in Enfield.

By borough, the City of London had the highest life expectancy at 85.6, although this was based on just one area.

It was followed by Richmond upon Thames at 84.39 and Kensington and Chelsea at 83.82.

Life expectancy at a local level is influenced by a range of factors, including wealth, lifestyle, access to healthcare, housing quality and the environment in which people live.

People living in more affluent areas tend to have a higher life expectancy, with greater financial security and better access to healthcare among the factors contributing to the gap.

But the figures also reveal that the divide is far greater at neighbourhood level than borough level.

Borough averages ranged from roughly 78 to 85 years, excluding the single-area City of London result — a gap of about 6.7 years.
