Household Types

Household types refer to different groupings of people living together, sharing income and expenses. They include single-person households, where one person lives alone; families, which can be nuclear (parents and children) or extended (additional relatives); cohabiting couples without children; multi-generational households with multiple generations under one roof; and shared households with unrelated individuals. These classifications help analyze living arrangements, economic status, and social patterns, providing insights into how people organize their homes and lives across diverse contexts.
