People in Jersey live on average around two years longer than those living in the UK.
When comparing our life expectancy with other jurisdictions, men have the best, and women have the second-best life spans.
Women in Jersey can now expect to live up to 85 years old, three years longer than men.
Director of Public Health, Professor Peter Bradley says it is encouraging to see that the life expectancy of Islanders has remained high.
"As an Island, we have had a difficult few years, however, we are committed to supporting Islanders with their health and wellbeing which will help us all live longer, healthier lives."
These are some of the findings from the government's new Life Expectancy 2020 - 2022 report.
Life expectancy for men has increased since 2010 by around three years to nearly 82.
The trend for men shows that life expectancy keeps increasing, whereas for women it plateaued with little change in the last five years.
"Life expectancy in Jersey is now slightly higher than it was a decade ago."
"Our recently published Public Health Strategy sets out how we will support islanders to live longer, healthier lives, through innovation, joint working, and understanding the drivers of poor health locally."
