Resident Households by Predominant Household Language and Age Group of Head of Household (Census of Population 2010)

Description

Census of Population 2010 counts of Singapore resident households by predominant household language, cross-tabulated with the age group of the head of household (from below 25 to 75 years and over). One-person households and households of only unrelated persons are excluded. Demographers and language-policy researchers study how home-language use varies with the age of the household head at the 2010 benchmark. Adapted from SingStat TableBuilder CT/8589.
