According to the recent analysis of the changes in population in Guangdong in 2017, the age of aging in Guangdong is gradually increasing, and the age structure of permanent residents is “old-aged”. In 2017, the number of households with 65 years of age and older in the province accounted for 22.22%, and an average of one household per 5 households had an elderly life. With the increasing miniaturization of families, not only the pressure on society has increased, but the pressure on family support has also increased significantly. Young people need to raise a few old people? According to statistics, the dependency ratio of the 65-year-old citizen in Guangdong is 11.62%, which is higher than the previous year. In other words, there are less than 9 working-age young people in Guangdong who need to raise an old man. From the perspective of a young and old, according to the conversion, there are about 3 young people in Guangdong, and it is necessary to raise an old person/child. According to the pressure of raising, the proportion of Guangdong is lower than the national average, and the pressure to support the family is relatively low.

From the point of view of Guangzhou, according to the recent data of Guangzhou's old office cloth, in 2015, Guangzhou has to pay 15.65 elderly people over 65 years old for every 100 working-age population. Equivalently, every 6 young people in Guangzhou have to raise an old man.

If the threshold of the elderly is lowered, and the 60-year-old is the boundary, the pressure on the people of Guangzhou will be even greater. It is equivalent to about every 4 young people, and they have to bear an old man over 60 years old.

Combined with the analysis of population structure, it can be foreseen that the burden of raising the elderly population in Guangzhou will continue to increase in the future.
