Of the base population, there were 1 059 804 deceased subjects (69.5% urban, 30.5% rural) and 307 853 living spouses (76.1% urban, 23.9% rural) aged 35 years or over in this study.
Additionally, it is necessary to have prioritised policies focussing on the different needs of the elderly, such as improving social activities and connection for urban older people while creating mechanisms to provide economic stability for the rural aged.

Data within categories (e.g. location; urban vs rural, age: child vs adult) were described in relation to EMS's involvement (e.g., time, resources).

Exactly because of the differentiation between 'caring for' and 'caring about', there is an urgent need to pay more attention to the quality of care instead of simply identifying care provision in future research on rural ageing in China.
This limitation is partly related to the fact that the majority of existing studies on rural ageing and intergenerational support draw upon survey data1 and this is generally collected from only one member of the older generation in a study unit.
Did you notice that responses differed according to the person's gender, tribe, urban, rural, age, class, or education?
Other variables collected in the survey were women's residency (urban, rural), age (years), and parity.
