A new compilation of economics data by Singapore Department of Statistics via data.gov.sg places 2023-03 at the forefront of Singapore, with a figure of 10.19K (Mainland China) for 2026. The reading is the highest across the province's 250 regencies and cities, and stands in stark contrast to 2026-04, which posts the bottom value at 0 (Macau). The disparity points to deep-seated structural differences in how the indicator unfolds locally.
Taken together, the highest and lowest readings differ by 10.19K. The variation, which observers consider modest, illustrates the degree to which economics hinges on factors ranging from urban density and infrastructure to historical access to public services.
Aggregating across the 250 regions yields an average of 667.35 per district and a combined total of 166.84K for 2026, offering a baseline against which individual readings can be compared. By that measure, 2023-03's reading is roughly 1426.3% above the provincial mean, while 2026-04 sits about 100.0% below it.
Set against Singapore's national picture, the Singapore figures reflect dynamics observed across much of the country: a concentration of higher readings in urbanised districts, and persistently lower values in less-densely populated or more remote areas. While the spread documented in the 2026 data is consistent with previous reporting cycles, the persistence of the gap underscores the difficulty of producing rapid convergence in economics through standard policy levers alone.
Data are sourced from Singapore Department of Statistics via data.gov.sg and form part of an ongoing series tracking social and economic conditions across Singapore. For Singapore, the 2026 release includes readings for each of the 250 regencies and cities under the province's administrative purview.
Looking ahead, the 2026 readings establish a clear baseline for tracking how economics evolves in Singapore over the coming years. Closing the gap between the leading and trailing districts is widely seen as one of the more pressing tasks for both provincial authorities and the national agencies that allocate resources across Singapore's subnational units.
