Level of presentation: India / State / District / City
New Table in 2001 Census

This table gives the distribution of households by the number of married couples, total number of married couples and the number of married couples that have independent room for sleeping. Only households having married couples are taken into account for the preparation of this table. The table also presents the data on total number of married couples and the number of married couples having independent room for sleeping by the number of dwelling rooms available to the households and by the number of married couples. Households are classified into five classes according to the number of married couples present in the household. These are:  1 married couple, 2 married couples, 3 married couples, 4 married couples and 5 or more married couples. The data by number of dwelling rooms are presented in five categories viz., no exclusive room, one room, two rooms, three rooms, four rooms and five rooms or more. This is a new table that would show relationship between the number of rooms available to a household, the number of married couples living therein and the number of married couples having independent sleeping room. The table excludes institutional households for which such type of information was not collected. The data in this table are presented for total, rural and urban areas separately.
