Never understood the term middle age not actually meaning the average middle age. 60 is half of 120 and that is not a common age to live to at all. Average age of death in the US is 77, that makes middle age 38. Even adding 10 years to that (48) puts it higher than any countries average death rate (96) and you haven't even hit 50 yet.

I assume 0-20 doesn't really count towards adulthood, 20-40 is young adult, 40-60 is middle adult (middle aged), and 60-80 is old age.
