I’m guessing Utah is partially due to Mormons abstaining from alcohol, so you’d see less chronic illness from that and fewer automotive fatalities.
Australia 2021-23: 81.1. All six states over 80 but Northern Territory 76.4.
In a normal year the US will have higher numbers but Covid hit them hard in 20-21.

My family genetics doing it’s best to keep NY’s numbers down.
Oh look another US map that looks the same!
So you’re saying more wives and more lakes
If you move from a low state to a high state when you’re 69, then move back to a low state when you’re 75, you will live forever.
Too difficult to discern the shades of orange.
