FOREWORD

The National Statistics Office conducted the 2000 Census of Population andHousing as mandated by ~atas Pambansa Big. 72. It also requires that a census ofpopulation be conducted. every ten years in order to have an inventory of the totalpopulation of the country and a stock of the housing units, not to mention otherdemographic and housing characteristics that can provide the necessary data toplanners.

The Special Report on Senior Citizens was prepared in response to a call for amore specific analysis of the results of the 2000 Census of Population and Housing. Itaims to disseminate information about senior citizens according to age, sex, maritalstatus, religious affiliation, disability, education, ethnicity, residence five years ago,household size, overseas workers, citizenship, literacy, place of school, occupation,class of worker; and place of work. Data describing the housing characteristics ofhouseholds with at least one senior citizen were also presented. These include type ofbuilding, year built, state of repair, floor area, and tenure status of the lot.

It is hoped that the detailed analysis of the composition of senior citizens wouldbe valuable in assessing their needs and in planning considerations and development.

I. INTRODUCTION

As the population continues to age, the Philippines will slowly shift itspopulation structure from young to old. The growing number of senior citizens,whose figure is expeCted to hit seven million by the year 2010, poses a majorchallenge to the government and other social sectors to establish a well-functioningsocio-economic security and health care system for the said population not only forthem to lead a productive life and still contribute to the national development butalso because they were once the care takers of the nation and the youngergeneration owe this to them.

At the global arena, the needs of the older population were also recognized.The Habitat Agenda by the United Nations Center for Human Settlements (UNCHS)and other United Nations agencies suggest policies for governments regarding theshelter needs and rights of the growing proportion and number of elderly population.Furthermore, resolutions on senior citizens to be able to live with dignity andsecurity and free of exploitation (United Nations Principles for Older Persons:General Assembly Resolution 46/91) were also established. In implementing thesecommitments, as stated in Paragraph 38 of The Habitat Agenda, a special attentionshould be given to the circumstances and needs of this segment of the population.

Before the implementation of the plans for the elderly, there is a need todetermine their characteristics to guide the planners on which specific programs areappropriate for the elders. Thus, this report presents the socio-demographic andeconomic characteristics of the population aged 60 years and over based on theresults of the 2000 Census of Population and Housing (Census 2000).

II. DATA

Results from the 2000 Census of Population and Housil")gwere tabulated andanalyzed to determine the characteristics of senior citizens, their households and.housing units. Specifically, the data presented in this report are as follows:

••• POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS

Senior citizens numbered to 4.6 million I-------The total number of senior citizens (60 years old and over) based on the 2000Census of Population and Housing was 4.6 million, accounting for 5.97 percent ofthe 2000 Philippine population. This number registered a 22.18 percent increasefrom 1995 (3.7 million persons). In terms of the average annual population growthrate, the elderly population grew at 4.39 percent during the 1995 to 2000 period,higher when compared to the 1990 to 1995 growth rate of 3.06 percent. If thegrowth rate continues at 4.39 percent, the number of senior citizens is expected toreach seven million in 2010 and to double in approximately 16 years.
