According to estimates by the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research, the average number of people per household in Gunma Prefecture is expected to fall below 2 people in 2040. In 2020, it was 2.35 people, but the downward trend will continue due to the declining birthrate and aging population. In addition, the number of single-person households in the prefecture will increase to 39.3% of the total by 2050, with a particular increase in single-person elderly households aged 65 and over, reaching approximately 154,000 households by 2045.
