Household type - Refers to the basic division of private households into family and non-family households.
'Family household' refers to a household that contains at least one census family, that is, a married couple with or without children, or a couple living common-law with or without children, or a lone parent living with one or more children (lone-parent family). 'One-family household' refers to a single census family (with or without other non-family persons) that occupies a private dwelling. 'Multiple-family household' refers to a household in which two or more census
families (with or without additional non-family persons) occupy the same private dwelling.
'Non-family household' refers to either one person living alone in a private dwelling or to a group of two or more people who share a private dwelling, but who do not constitute a census family.
