How to read it

Across European NUTS 1 regions the values range from 75.0 years (Severna i Yugoiztochna Bulgaria) to 85.7 years (Comunidad de Madrid).

Differences between regions of one country are often larger than differences between countries - which is why regions are compared across Europe, not only at home.
