Declining old age support ratio due to declining birth rates and rising life expectancies.
More older adults and even younger generations choosing to live alone and independently.
Ageing-in-place
Provision of amenities to support ageing-in-place and provide social resources to older adults in Singapore.
Amenities such as eldercare services, community centres and community gardens could enable older adults to age well and healthily within their community.
Provision of amenities
Understand the availability of different amenities for seniors in Singapore and if there is a relationship between the demographics (specifically age) and provision.
Such datasets on amenities are often standalone and not mapped with population demographics.
Providing a visualization to get a broad understanding of the spread and location of amenities across subzones could be useful to understand potential gaps in terms of provision.
