  • 1.  Nonfamily households

    Anyone else use persons living in nonfamily households from B09019? The Bureau is getting rid of that, as of the new 1-year release. From the new table shell, it looks like anyone not in a family household is in a group quarters. Am I reading this correctly?

    I don't see how that could be unless they redefined people living alone as a family of one, and house-sharing as group quarters, etc

    I'm going to walk that back a bit.

    If I take total - (in households + in group quarters), does that leave persons in nonfamily households? Not sure that works either

    Here is the new table:

    How can I get persons in nonfamily households from this?

    It looks like everyone is either in a household or group quarters, with no distinction between family and non family households. It doesn't look like you can extract non family from this shell.

    I think I can get it from B11002
