This analysis focuses on the changes in the over 65 resident care home population of England and Wales. This age group represents most of the care home population: 82.5 per cent in 2011. However, the care home resident population for those aged 65 and over has remained almost stable since 2001 with an increase of 0.3 per cent, despite growth of 11.0 per cent in the overall population at this age. Fewer women but more men aged 65 and over were living as residents of care homes in 2011 compared to 2001; the population of women fell by around 9,000 (-4.2 per cent) while the population of men increased by around 10,000 (15.2 per cent). The gender gap in the older resident care home population has, therefore, narrowed since 2001. In 2011 there were around 2.8 women for each man aged 65 and over compared to a ratio of 3.3 women for each man in 2001.The resident care home population is ageing: in 2011, people aged 85 and over represented 59.2 per cent of the older care home population compared to 56.5 per cent in 2001.
