This dataset provides 2001 Census estimates that classify households in England and Wales by tenure and lowest floor level by household composition. The estimates are as at census day, 29 April 2001.

The terms used to describe tenure are defined as: 
Owned: either owned outright, owned with a mortgage or loan, or paying part rent and part mortgage (shared ownership).
Other social rented includes rented from Registered Social Landlord, Housing association, Housing Co-operative and Charitable Trust.
Private rented: renting from a private landlord or letting agency, employer of a household member, or relative or friend of a household member or other person.

'Living rent free' could include households that are living in accommodation other than private rented.

A dependent child is a person in a household aged 0 to 15 (whether or not in a family) or a person aged 16 to 18 who is a full-time student in a family with parent(s).
