Jakarta's dependency ratio in 2016 increased compared to 2010. Data from the Central Bureau of Statistics shows that the dependency ratio in Jakarta reached 40.02 percent in 2016, higher than the 2010 figure of 36.94 percent. This indicates that the burden borne by the productive age group in Jakarta tended to increase in 2016. Despite the increase, the dependency ratio in Jakarta remains below 50 percent.
In 1990, Jakarta's dependency ratio was quite high, reaching 50.65 percent. This indicates that the economic burden borne by the productive-age population in the nation's capital was very heavy. For every 100 people of productive age, 51 non-productive age people were supported.
