All ten members of the performing group came from Boluo where 10.1 out of 100,000 residents are aged 100 or above, exceeding the United Nations’ standard for qualifying as a longevity locale. With an average life expectancy four years above the national average, the county, which regards its longest-living inhabitants as a valuable resource, is also home to several of families where all members have lived to a ripe old age, some with five generations under the same roof.
