I am married to a medic who says you are correct about age affecting blood pressure. However, anything up to 140/90 is considered ok, the healthier one is then the level will be lower. The levels you mention would be excellent but it is more likely someone in their 20's or 30's would have those levels.

I am 58 and mine is 138/87 which is very ok for my age apparently, hope that helps.
