The elderly population (seniors), namely residents aged 60 and above, continues to increase in Indonesia.

According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), in 2010, the ratio of elderly population was only 7.59% of the total national population.

Then the figure gradually increased to reach 11.97% by 2025, as shown in the graph.

This means that out of every 100 Indonesian residents, there are 11 to 12 people who are already considered elderly.

"Indonesia is entering the phase of an ageing population, as indicated by the proportion of residents aged 60 and above reaching more than 10 percent," said BPS in its report.

"The ageing of the population also carries important implications for the provision of social services, health, and a protection system that is more responsive to the needs of the elderly," it continued.

For the record, the data for 2010 and 2020 come from the results of the Population Census (SP), which is a comprehensive survey of all Indonesian residents.

Then the data for 2015 and 2025 come from the results of the Inter-Census Population Survey (SUPAS), which is a population survey conducted between two censuses to update demographic indicators.
