This dataset provides Census 2022 estimates for Household tenure by age of Household Reference Person in Scotland. ## Age A person’s age on Census day (20 March 2022) calculated from their date of birth. Infants less than one year old are classed as being 0 years of age. ## Household reference person The concept of a Household Reference Person (HRP) was introduced in the 2001 Census (in common with other government surveys in 2001/2) to replace the traditional concept of the 'head of the household'. HRPs provide an individual person within a household to act as a reference point for producing further derived statistics and for characterising a whole household according to characteristics of the chosen reference person. For a person living alone, it follows that this person is the HRP. If a household contains only one family (with or without ungrouped individuals) then the HRP is the same as the Family Reference Person (FRP). The Family Reference Person (FRP) is identified by criteria based on the family make up: In a lone parent family it is taken to be the lone parent. In a couple family, the FRP is chosen from the two people in the couple on the basis of their economic activity (in the priority order: full-time job, part-time job, unemployed, retired, other). If both people have the same economic activity, the FRP is identified as the elder of the two or, if they are the same age, the first member of the couple on the form. If there is more than one family in a household the HRP is chosen from among the FRPs using the same criteria used to choose the FRP. This means the HRP will be selected from the FRPs on the basis of their economic activity, in the priority order: * Economically active, employed, full-time, non-student * Economically active, employed, full-time, student * Economically active, employed, part-time, non-student * Economically active, employed, part-time, student * Economically active, unemployed, non-student * Economically active, unemployed, student * Economically inactive, retired * Economically inactive, other If some or all FRPs have the same economic activity, the HRP is the eldest of the FRPs. If some or all are the same age, the HRP is the first of the FRPs from the order in which they were listed on the questionnaire. For families in which there is generational divide between family members that cannot be determined (Other related family), there is no FRP. Members of these families are treated the same as ungrouped individuals. If a household is made up entirely of any combination of ungrouped individuals and other related families, the HRP is chosen from among all people in the household, using the same criteria used to choose between FRPs. Students at their non term-time address cannot be the HRP.

For rented households, this variable also includes information about the type of landlord who owns or manages the accommodation. This variable is derived from two questions on the household form on household tenure and landlord. __Household question 12: Does your household own or rent this accommodation?__ * Owns with a mortgage or loan * Owns outright * Owns with shared equity (for example, LIFT, Help-to-Buy) * Rents (with or without housing benefit) * Part owns and part rents (shared ownership) * Lives rent free __Household question 13: Who is your landlord? (Only asked of households who are renting)__ * Council (Local Authority) or Housing Association / Registered Social Landlord * Private landlord or letting agency * Other Details of classification can be found [here](https://www.scotlandscensus.gov.uk/metadata/tenure-of-household/#panel-1) _The quality assurance report can be found [here](https://www.scotlandscensus.gov.uk/2022-results/scotlands-census-2022-quality-assurance-reports/quality-assurance-report-housing/)_
