In 2020, people aged 65 years or older made up almost 72 percent of all fatalities related to accidental house fires in Japan. Considering that the elderly in 2020 made up only about 28.4 percent of the population, it can be said that their share in house fire fatalities throughout all of the observed period is hugely disproportionate, indicating a higher vulnerability compared to the average population.
