Families are comprised of: 1) couples (married or common-law, including same-sex couples) living in the same dwelling with or without children, and 2) single parents (male or female) living with one or more children.

They may be living alone, with a family to whom they are related, with a family to whom they are unrelated or with other persons not in census families.
A lone-parent family is a family with only one parent, male or female, and with at least one child.
