Definition
Household members are defined as people who reside together and take their meals together for at least 3 of the past 12 months. The only people you should include who have been there for less than 3 months are infants, people who spend most of the year in an institution (for example students, soldiers, prisoners) and newly added spouses. The head is always a member. (Deceased members should not be included here, there is a separate section of the survey for them).
