Description
This variable identifies whether or not a person is in a family nucleus.
A family nucleus comprises a couple with or without child(ren), or one parent and their child(ren) whose usual residence is in the same household; the children do not have partners or children of their own living in that household.
Included are people who were absent on census night but usually live in a particular dwelling and are members of a family nucleus in that dwelling, as long as they were reported as being absent by the reference person on the dwelling form or the household summary page.
