In 2023, there were approximately 78,100 single-person elderly households in Singapore. This figure has been increasing in the past ten years, as Singapore faces the challenge of an ageing population. By 2050, it was projected that more than 30 percent of the Singaporean resident population would be aged 65 years and above.
