Abstract
Like many countries around the world, Singapore is ageing rapidly. Its age-65-and-older population is expected to double to 1 in 4 persons by 2030, propelling Singapore towards a super-aged society. Where will they live? Notwithstanding the wider debate about high-rise living suitability, Singapore has started to retool its high-rise public housing where 80% of its resident population reside, for an ageing society. This paper discusses Singapore's public housing development to meet the changing needs of population ageing. It explicates the process of physical transformation and key strategies towards ageing in place as well as older residents' satisfaction with public housing.
