Analysis# Kazakhstan Life Expectancy at Birth
Kazakhstan's life expectancy reached 74.531 years in 2024, matching its all-time peak. Over the past 64 years, the country has achieved a remarkable 28.6% gain in longevity, climbing from 57.946 years in 1960. This sustained improvement reflects modernization in healthcare, living standards, and public health infrastructure across the nation.
Recent decades reveal two distinct patterns. From 2015 to 2019, Kazakhstan experienced steady annual gains, rising from 72.024 to 73.658 years. However, 2020 brought a sharp decline to 71.195 years—likely reflecting COVID-19 mortality—followed by further drops through 2021. Recovery began in 2022 and accelerated through 2024, with gains of over 1.3 years in just two years. The current trajectory suggests continued improvement in life expectancy going forward.
