Description

Definition
This variable indicates the number of households from the same dwelling that contained this household (including this household) included in the sample. Only dwellings with 30 or fewer residents were sampled at the level of dwellings. Larger dwellings were sampled at the level of households or by taking related groups or individuals from large group quarters (to identify large dwellings see US80B050 ).
