Data content

The indicator gives household-dwelling units with persons aged 65 and over as a percentage of all household-dwelling units. A household-dwelling unit consists of all persons occupying the same dwelling on a permanent basis.

The population for the statistics on household-dwelling units and housing conditions is formed by persons permanently resident in actual dwellings, i.e. the so-called dwelling population. Persons who, according to the Population Information System of the Population Register Centre, are permanently institutionalised, living in residential homes and abroad and homeless people are not included in the dwelling population. Likewise, persons living in buildings classified as residential homes whose living quarters do not meet the definition of dwelling, are not included.
