Dataset population: Households

Household composition (alternative classification)

This derived variable describes households in an alternative way to the classification used in most of the standard tables (see Household composition).

It defines households by the age of the people in them. It does not take into account the relationships between people in households. For the purposes of this classification, an 'adult' is defined as any person aged 16 or over and a 'child' is defined as any person aged under 16.
