Resident Population Aged 65 Years and Over in Resident Households by Type of Dwelling, Mobility Status and Sex (Census of Population 2000)
Description
Census of Population 2000 table from the Singapore Department of Statistics counting resident household members aged 65 and over by type of dwelling, mobility status, and sex. Columns split each dwelling category into ambulant, semi-ambulant, and non-ambulant seniors, with male and female breakdowns alongside totals. Gerontology researchers and eldercare planners use the 12-row table as a historical baseline for how Singapore's older population and its mobility needs were distributed across housing types. Adapted from SingStat TableBuilder CT/8879.
