If an area has low population growth rate but high elderly population, which need will planning focus on?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Elderly health and care services

The direct answer is B: elderly health and care services. A low growth rate describes how quickly the total population is changing, but it does not tell us the age structure. If the proportion of elderly people is high, planning must consider their healthcare, regular medical support, accessible transport, social assistance, and long-term care needs. Option A may be useful for some residents but does not address the main planning need indicated by a large elderly population. Option C concerns water or infrastructure and is not specifically linked to age structure. Option D is harmful, irrelevant, and not a planning need. The lesson is to examine both population growth and age composition. Memory cue: growth rate tells “how fast”; age structure tells “who needs services.”
