RLHP | Relationship in Household | June release |
|
| Describes the relationship of each person in a family to the family reference person or, where a person is not part of a family, that person's relationship to the household reference person.
Children who are usually resident in the household are classified as dependent if they form a parent child relationship and are either 0-14 years of age; or they are 15-24 years of age and also a full-time student (in secondary or tertiary education). Children who are aged 15-24 years who are not full-time students and children aged 25 years and over are classified as non-dependent children. Children who are full-time students aged 15-24 years of age with a child or partner of his/her own, or who are aged 25 years and over with a child or partner of his/her own, are classified according to that relationship.
The category, 'Other non-classifiable relationship' was added to RLHP in 2011. People in occupied private dwellings who were coded to not applicable in previous Censuses have been coded to Other non-classifiable relationship from 2011.
