[en] The latest publication based on census data deals specifically with senior citizens, not only through traditional demographic data, but also thanks to information provided directly by respondents revealing their migratory profile, the languages they use, their situation with regard to disability, their relationship with work, and their housing conditions. All these elements are fundamental to improving our knowledge of this population and the responses we can offer, especially in a general context of ageing European societies.
