Introduction: In the USA, Hispanics exhibit longer life expectancy (LE) compared to non-Hispanic whites despite facing greater socioeconomic adversity and greater health risk factors, a phenomenon known as the Hispanic paradox. With recent increases in mortality due to 'deaths of despair' among non-Hispanic whites and other groups it is important to understand the contribution of deaths of despair to the Hispanic mortality advantage overall and how it varies by age and geography.
Methods: Using national mortality data across three decades (1990-2019) we calculated LE at birth for Hispanics and non-Hispanic whites, overall and by place (established Hispanic destinations before 1990, and new Hispanic destinations by 2000, 2010 and 2020).
