People aged 60 years and above are generally placed in which age group?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Elderly age group

Age classification helps planners understand how many people may need schooling, employment, health care, pensions, or long-term support. People aged 60 years and above are generally placed in the elderly age group in the school-level population studies referenced here. This group may have greater need for medical care, social security, pensions, accessible housing, assistance, and family or community support. Its size also affects the dependency ratio and the future financial planning of governments.

Option C is correct because it explicitly identifies the 60-plus population as elderly. They are not in the child or adolescent groups, which refer to much younger ages. They are also not automatically part of the working-age group, although some people aged 60 or more may continue working in practice. The category is a statistical and general classification, so individual health, employment, and retirement conditions can differ. The important point is that age 60 is the stated boundary in this question.
