The table shows the percentage of people in Canada living in different types of households in 1984, 1994, 2004, 2014 and 2020.
Overall, couples with dependent children was the most common household type in all years, but its percentage decreased. On the other hand, one-person households, couples with no children and lone parents all increased.
In 1984, 52% of people lived in couple households with dependent children. This figure fell steadily to 47% in 1994, 41% in 2004 and 36% in 2020. Couples with non-dependent children stayed quite stable at around 10%, but it decreased slightly to 9% in 2014 and 2020.
In contrast, couples without children increased from 19% in 1984 to 25% in 2014 and stayed the same in 2020. The percentage of people living alone doubled from 6% to 12% during the period. Lone parent households also increased a lot, from only 4% in 1984 to 12% in 2014 and 2020, which is three times higher.
