Everywhere in the world women tend to live longer than men
The first chart below shows life expectancy at birth for men and women. It is clear that all countries are above the line of parity diagonally. This means that a newborn girl from any country can expect to live longer than her older brother.

Interestingly, this chart shows that, while the advantage for women exists across all countries, the country-specific differences are huge. In Russia, women live for 10 years longer than men. In Bhutan the gap is less than half a calendar year.
