Families and Households in the UK 2025

Product Description

Estimates of families (with and without children) and household types, including people living alone in the UK in 2024.

The families and households' estimates are produced using the Quarter 2 (Apr to June) of the Labour Force Survey (LFS), a large-scale UK household survey.

For this release, the Quarter 2 2025 survey was used to produce data that achieved a sample of 33,235 households (including imputed).

Most communal establishments are excluded from the LFS, except for NHS accommodation. Students in halls of residence are included through the parental home.

This bulletin focuses on UK data. Throughout, it has compared 2025 estimates and/or percentages to previous years and between different groups. Such comparisons are statistically significant, unless stated otherwise. The accompanying datasets also show data for England, Scotland, and Wales, as well as the regions of England.
