Useful Local Statistics

The population of people aged 65 and over in Northampton in 2025 is projected to be 44,900. This equates to 26.7% of the total projected population figures. One of the aims of Northamptonshire County Council as part of their Supporting People role is to reduce the level of residential care facilities that are of poor quality, and replace them with extra care facilities. Northampton Borough Council is currently working very closely with the County Council on the re-provision of residential care units, and the new provision of extra care schemes.
