Sometimes, a mile or two makes a difference in life expectancy. How long will you live, based on your address? Check it out here:

My address says I'll live to 82 years old. The average life expectancy for my state is 78. I guess I'm staying put.

Thanks @bathina,  My area says 82.5 years.  Think I'll stay put too !!!

Ok you got me beat...only 80 1/2yrs old here!  Checked out my parents address (both passed on at 83 and 85yrs old) and the census said 75!  looks like they beat the census in that area.

Oh Geez I will be dead before you know it.

Good thing this is a bunch of BS LOL!!!

79 for me.

i think this is only relevant if you are comparing Chicago to post falls, idaho

80.6 for me, but I'm planning on more than that.

@bathina It says they can't find me. What does that mean?? Am I dead or going to live forever.  lol

@grandma2pkmh  I'm in purgatory too! 

I feel a bit like Bruce Willis in the 6th Sense.  I am going to be really upset if I've stressed this much and I've been dead the whole freaking time!

Did you ladies put in your complete address? I plugged in my zip code only at first, and I got the "we can't find you" message. Either way, @Laura14 and @grandma2pkmh, you are both a hoot!

That's good to know .... I've got 14 more years left.  Was thinking about buying another cat, but now that's not a good idea.

I do believe there is some logic behind the prediction ... in my area, we are loaded with radon (northeast).
