Singapore's senior population is rising, driving demand for smaller homes and aging-in-place options.
In Singapore, seniors aged 65 and above now make up 18.2% of HDB residents, up from 14% in 2018, with senior households accounting for 31% of all HDB homes.
Most seniors prefer to age in place, citing comfort and emotional ties, while demand grows for smaller two- and three-room flats.
One-person households rose to 15.6% in 2023/2024, up from 12.6% in 2018, as household sizes shrink to an average of 3.0 people.
HDB is expanding options like flexi flats and Community Care Apartments to support aging in place and meet needs of singles and seniors.
