State Variation in Black and White Life Expectancy and Evolving Disparities
In this brief, we quantify differences in life expectancy between and within non-Hispanic Black and white populations over time and across states.
In the 3 decades prior to the pandemic, gaps between black and white life expectancy narrowed, but progress was uneven across the states. We document here. Next step: Did policy produce these patterns? Stay tuned. @urbaninstitute.bsky.social @rwjf.bsky.social
