Documentation of statistics

Family type

Families are grouped into the following types:
- married couple without children, opposite sexes

Couple without children refers to a couple that has never had children or whose children no longer live with their parents.
Couples with children include not only couples with common children but also couples whose children are not common. Same-sex couples are, however, recorded as cohabiting couples only in case the couples have at least one common child in the dwelling.
For data protection reasons, same-sex married couples and couples in registered partnerships are classified in municipal tables together with opposite-sex married couples. For data protection reasons, same-sex cohabiting couples are classified in municipal tables together with opposite-sex cohabiting couples.
