Data comes from wave 6 of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE), carried out in 18 countries and representing over 124 million aged individuals in Europe. Using the information of around 30 mixed-type variables, we design four composite indices of wellbeing for each respondent: self-perception of health, physical health and nutrition, mental agility, and level of dependency. Next, by implementing the k-prototypes clustering algorithm, profiles are created by combining those indices with a collection of socio-economic and demographic variables about the respondents. Five profiles are established that segment the dataset into the least to the most individuals at risk of health and socio-economic wellbeing. The methodology we propose is wide enough to be extended to other surveys or disciplines.18eng© 2020 by the authors.Atribución 3.0 EspañaAgeingClusteringDependencyLong-term careWellbeingresearch articleEstadísticahttps://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph17217747open access774721International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health17AR/0000026375
