Description
This Singapore Department of Statistics dataset presents resident households from the Census of Population 2010, classified by the predominant language spoken in the household and the highest qualification attained by the head of household. It supports research on the relationship between household language patterns and the educational attainment of household heads in Singapore during the 2010 census period. The dataset is intended for analysis of household characteristics across these stated dimensions; the supplied official note does not specify additional geographic breakdowns, so users should consult the linked SingStat table for the available level of geographic detail and table structure. Data were last updated on 22 March 2016 and are associated with a 10-year update cycle. Coverage excludes one-person households, households comprising only unrelated persons, and households headed by students. Useful search and research intents include Singapore household language statistics, predominant household language by education level, Census of Population 2010 household data, educational qualifications of household heads, and demographic research on language and education in Singapore.
