In 2022, people aged 65 years or older made up more than 75 percent of all fatalities related to accidental house fires in Japan. Considering that the elderly in 2022 made up less than 30 percent of the population, it can be said that their share in house fire fatalities throughout all the observed period is hugely disproportionate, indicating a higher vulnerability compared to the average population.
