Housing & Development Board (HDB) derives resident population and growth metrics from the Sample Household Survey conducted every five years in Singapore. CSV datasets cover HDB resident population counts and annualised growth rates for citizens and permanent residents in HDB flats, excluding subtenants. Housing analysts and demographers can study public-housing demographics with rounded figures as documented. This collection links SHS methodology to long-run HDB population open data.
