Second address 2011

Dataset population: Persons

Second address

A second address is an address at which a person stays for more than 30 days per year that is not a person's place of usual residence. This includes addresses that are in the UK and those outside the UK.

Typical second addresses include:

  • Armed Forces bases
  • Addresses used by people working away from home
  • A student's home address
  • The address of another parent or guardian
  • Holiday homes.

If a person with a second address was staying at that address on census night, they were classed as a visitor to that address, but counted as a usual resident at their home address.
