According to the US Current Population Survey, only 10% of disabled adult women are aged 16 to 24, while over 40% are between 55 and 64 years old. This trend is happening around the world, with more older women than men having disabilities, such as a 10 to 7 ratio in the Philippines. In China, the number of individuals over 59 with disabilities more than doubled from 20.51 million in 1987 to 44.16 million in 2006, with 52.7%.
