HNTA Database: Estimates and Projections
The HNTA data quantifies how individuals at every age acquire and use economic resources to meet their material needs, to help others, and to provide for the future. The economic flows include consumption, labor income, transfers, asset income and saving. More detailed components of these flows are provided, e.g., spending on education, health, and housing; transfers to and from families, state and local government, and the federal government. Included are updated estimates for 2012 and 2022; projections for 2020 to 2060; and other related data. More than 150 variables are included in the data base. The data base is disseminated in two ways:

Report: Aging and Hawaii's Generational Economy
Hawai'i's population is aging rapidly. By 2035 one in four people will be 65 or older according to the most recent projections. The purpose of this study is to assess how aging is affecting Hawai'i's economy from a generational perspective and steps that could be taken to prepare for this unprecedented change in our population.
