Women outlive men by an average of 4–6 years globally, a gap observed in nearly every country in the world. In Japan, average female life expectancy exceeds 87 years.

Social factors such as lower rates of smoking and alcohol consumption also contribute.

Japan consistently leads the world in longevity. As of the early 2020s, Japan had over 90,000 centenarians — people aged 100 or older. Women outnumber men by about six to one among centenarians. Factors include diet (especially in Okinawa), strong social bonds, universal healthcare, and cultural attitudes toward aging.
