Resident households by monthly income category; count and share, Census 2020.
The S$20,000-or-more category was the largest part of Singapore’s 2020 household-income distribution at 14.0%. Households with no employed person were second at 13.3%. Together, those two source-defined categories represented 27.2% of the published resident-household total. The 19 category counts differ from the official total by one household, and no source value is adjusted.

Dataset/table: Resident households by monthly household income from work and household size
Units: households
Date checked: 2026-07-16
Evidence: Supports all 19 non-total income categories and the official overall resident-household denominator.
The category counts exceed the published total by one household, a negligible source-level reconciliation difference that is not silently corrected; the income definition includes the 2026 metadata update for Additional MediSave Contributions.
Exclude the overall Total as a segment, retain No Employed Person and all 18 monetary bands, and calculate every share against the published overall Total. The treemap combines the three smallest source categories into one visual tile; the accompanying data table retains all 19 categories separately.
All segments use one final census source, one 2020 period, household-count unit and one official overall denominator.
