520 |a"Between August 1994 to September 1994, the 411 Seniors' Housing Society interviewed 200 residents age 50 and over, living in downtown Vancouver, which includes the downtown core (Central and Downtown Eastside) and the West End. In contrast to the typical sex distribution of residents age 50 and over, males outnumber females in the downtown core. In Central, this ratio is significantly high, with three males to one female. Nearly all of the residents are renters, with an income of less than $10,000 / year, and paying 30% or more of their income to rent. Half of the residents live in downtown because it is one of the few places in the city left with low rental accommodation. There is clear evidence for the need of affordable housing, however, there is no indication of residents in serious financial crisis. West End residents are comprised of an older cohort from an employment background. In general, most receive pensions, and are financially better off than those in the downtown core"--Executive summary.
