Official description
Source: SINGAPORE DEPARTMENT OF STATISTICS Data Last Updated: 30/06/2026 Update Frequency: 10 years Survey period: Census of Population 2020 Footnotes: Notes: Data pertain to households with reference persons who were not attending educational institutions as full-time students and include those who were upgrading their qualifications through part-time courses. Data on Household Living Arrangement have been revised in June 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.
