The aging index (the population of those 65 and over divided by the population of those 14 and under) for Aborigines is 25.19 %; in other words, there are four children for each senior citizen. This index is less than half that of the general population at 58.13 %.
而以「老化指數」（65 歲以上人口數除以 14 歲以下人口數的百分比，意即老人／兒童比）觀察，原住民的老化指數為 25.19 %，即每 4 個兒童才有一位老人，這個數字較全國的 58.13 % 低了不止一倍。
