In the early 2000s, I used to read the Boston Globe obituaries every Sunday morning just to be uplifted in reading that most of the deaths were of people who lived a good LONG life - the obit of anyone under 70 was maybe 10%, and the death of anyone under 50 was definitely less than 5%, and anyone under 30 was maybe one a week (out of several dozen) and it was usually a suicide or an overdose. It's so different now.
I live in a small town. I checked the obits for the past 30 days. There was about a dozen below 60s. There were what I would expect of the 75+.
