Primary family.--A primary family consists of two or more persons including the head of the household and all (one or more) persons in the household who are related to the head by blood, marriage, or adoption. It may include a sub.. family consisting of a married couple with or without children, or one parent with one or more children under 18 years of age, living in the household and related to but not including the head of the household or his wife.

SOURCE AND RELIABILITY OF THE DATA All of the data shown in this report are based on complete counts, including all dwelling units and families with the specified characteristics. The housing and family data in tables 1 through 4 were obtained by tabulating the information as reported in the census. The distributions involving income in tables 48 and 5 were obtained by a special supplementation of the census income data, since in the census, family income was asked of only one-fifth of the families. The supplementation was accomplished by a subsequent field enumeration of the families who were not in the original 20-percent sample used in the census but who were living in substandard dwelling units.
