Super aged Singapore in 2026

Information source

The United Nations defines a country as ‘ageing’ if the share of its population aged 65 and above crosses 7%. 

It is considered ‘aged’ if the share exceeds 14%.

Once the share reaches 21%, it is ‘super aged’.

Singapore took only 19 years to go from ‘ageing’ to ‘aged’, and reached this milestone in 2017.

We are projected to attain ‘super aged’ status in 2026.
.
By 2030, 1 in 4 citizens will be aged 65 and above.
