Record number of households in Japan living on welfare
TOKYO —
The number of households living on welfare in Japan hit a record high 1,634,185 in December, the government said Wednesday.
The Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry attributed the figure, up 1,965 from the previous month, to an increase of households consisting of elderly people living alone and without earnings.
The number of welfare-dependent households consisting of persons aged 65 or older came to 805,723, up by 1,877 from the previous month and accounting for 49.6% of the total. Of these, more than 90 percent consisted of a single person, according to data released by the ministry.
The number of individuals on welfare was 2,165,585, up 1,210 from November. The number accounts for 1.71% of Japan’s total population, the ministry said.
