Why was life expectancy in colonial new england considerably higher than life expectancy in the country of england?

Hello there!

The life expectancy in colonial New England considerably higher than life expectancy in the country of England because there was a low population density and they relied on subsidence farming. These factors led the colonial New England's life expectancy more higher than in the country of England.

Since there was a little bit of people in the colonial New England, it was more easy to manage people's health and well being, which brought down less stress which let people live a lot longer. A smaller population in colonial New England led to them giving maximum care to the people. In the country of England, the population was big, in which it was hard to take carte of everyone, which led to a lot of deaths

Subsidence farming also allowed the people of the colonial New England have a longer life expectancy because they needed only enough for themselves. What "subsidence farming" means is to farm only the amount that is needed for a person and their family, so people in the colonial New England farmed the stuff they needed, while having a lot of crops left for any "emergency purposes" or for "storage." This allowed them to have an abundant amount of crops. In the country of England, they had to farm all of their crops, which they had no left overs. Since they had no left overs, when they needed more , they didn't have any; that made people suffered and possibly starved to death.
