Persons in the household include:
- Householder - The person who was reported in column 1. This reference person was to be the person or one of the persons in whose name the home was owned or rented. If there was no such person, any adult household member at least 15 years old who was not a roomer, boarder, or paid employee was to be reported in column 1. In complete-count tabulations, the number of householders is the same as the number of households or occupied housing units. In sample tabulations, the numbers may not always be the same because of differences in weighting sample data.
- Family householder - A householder living with one or more persons related to him or her by birth, marriage, or adoption.
- Nonfamily householder - A householder living alone or only with persons not related to him or her.
