Resident Households By Age Group Of Household Reference Person And Household Living Arrangement, Annual
Description
Annual counts of Singapore resident households by age group of the household reference person and household living arrangement from 2000 through 2025. Census years, General Household Survey years, and other years draw on different survey sources; living-arrangement definitions were revised in June 2026 to reflect household-member composition. Demographers track how living arrangements vary with the age of the reference person. Adapted from SingStat TableBuilder TS/M810651.
Official description
Source: SINGAPORE DEPARTMENT OF STATISTICS Data Last Updated: 30/06/2026 Update Frequency: Annual Footnotes: Data for 2000, 2010 and 2020 are based on the Census of Population while data for 2005, 2015 and 2025 are based on the General Household Survey. Data for all other years are based on the Comprehensive June Labour Force Survey. Survey estimates are subject to sampling variability. Data on Household Living Arrangement have been revised in Jun 2026 to be based on the composition of members within the household, instead of the characteristics of the household reference person to provide a more holistic view of household living arrangements.
