    The global population over the age of 60 will increase from 900 million to 2 billion, representing an increase from 12% to 22%. The aging of the population is currently happening at a faster rate than in previous years. Aging can be seen as a success of socioeconomic development and public health policies, but also as a social challenge to improve health and functional capabilities. The capacity of older adults is crucial, including their social involvement and safety. Objective: To determine the sociodemographic factors related to functional capacity in older adults at AAHH Villa Solidaridad, San Juan de Miraflores District in 2022.

The average age was 67.99 years, with a higher proportion of females and independent functional capacity. A significant statistical relationship was found between functional capacity and sociodemographic factors, except for income.
