“Most people” live until their late eighties (at least in Western Europe), modal and median ages at death are generally 86-90, whereas the mean is lower as you have around 15 years to die in after 85, but 85 years to die in before which pulls it down
The definition for middle aged (edit: as I have heard it) has always been 40. Most people live until 80 or a little less, so it makes sense.
Yeah, 40 is the traditional ‘over the hill’ birthday.
My definition for middle aged will be 40 until I reach 40 at which point I will shift this definition to 45.

Really? That’s higher than I thought. I guess it’s increased steadily.
