***[In 2024 life expectancy in France is a question of region, department and city](https://www.avis-de-deces.com/france-regions-departements)***
In France, life expectancy at birth is 85.3 years for women and 79.4 years for men. This means that on average, a French woman born in 2024 will live to the age of 85.3 years, and a man to the age of 79.4.
