Definitions

According to the US Census definition, a household consists of all the people who occupy a housing unit. This page reports on the types of households in Congress Heights. The following definitions are used in this page:

  • Family: a group of two or more people related by birth, marriage, or adoption and residing together
  • Married: a husband and wife that are part of the same household1
  • Single Female: female householder, no husband present, with other family members in the household
  • Single Male: male householder, no wife present, with other family members in the household
  • One Person: householder living alone
  • Other Non-Family: householder living with other people that are not family members

1as defined by the US Census Bureau (please direct comments and complaints to them)

Unlike the other geographical entities detailed on this site, neighborhoods are not recognized by the U.S. Census Bureau. To overcome this we have computed reasonable estimates of the same statistics that are presented for other the entity types. Each statistic is computed as the weighted sum or average of the census tracts or block groups that overlap the neighborhood. A weighted sum is used for counts of people or households, and a weighted average is used for statistics that are themselves some form of average, such as median household income. Census block groups are preferred when the statistic in question is available on the block group level. The weight for a given tract (or block group) is computed as the population of the census tabulation blocks that occupy the intersection between the tract and the neighborhood as a fraction of the total population of the neighborhood.
