There are 34 Million Single Persons in the Philippines

According to the most recent data from Philippine Statistics Authority, there are 34,487,076 single persons in the Philippines aged 10 years and over from a total of 109 million population in the Philippines. While persons in common-law/live-in marital arrangements continued to increase since 2010, the number of single individuals shrunk slightly from 2015 to 2020.

There are more single males than females across all regions and across age groups below 60 years old. Davo de Oro, Davao Occidental and Apayao had the highest sex ratio while, Sulu, City of San Juan and Lanao del Sur had the lowest.

Sex ratio stands at 103 males per 100 females

1. The sex ratio in the Philippines was computed at 103 in 2020. This means that there were 103 males for every 100 females. The sex ratio in 2015 was slightly lower at 102 males per 100 females. (Figure 2)

2. In 2020, children aged below 15 years had a sex ratio of 107 males per 100 females, while those aged 15 to 64 years had a sex ratio of 103 males per 100 females. Moreover, among those aged 65 years and over, the sex ratio was 73 males per 100 females. This depicts a longer life expectancy among females than males or a higher mortality rate among males than females in the older age groups. (Figure 2)



Based on the 2020 Census of Population and Housing (2020 CPH), the Philippines had a total population of 109,035,343 persons. Of this total, the household population comprised 99.7 percent or 108,667,043 persons.

Of the 108.67 million household population in 2020, 55.02 million (50.6%) were males while 53.65 million (49.4%) were females. By age group, 33.4 million (30.7%) were under 15 years of age (young dependents). On the other hand, persons aged 15 to 64 years (working-age or economically-active population) totaled to 69.40 million (63.9%) while those in age groups 65 years and over (old dependents) comprised the remaining 5.86 million (5.4%). In 2015, persons aged 0 to 14 years, 15 to 64 years, and 65 years and over accounted for 32.0, 63.3, and 4.8 percent, respectively, of the household population.
