They use population not number of households in many places such as: “the UK has roughly the average number of homes per capita: 468 per 1,000 people in 2019.”

They use population not number of households in many places such as: “the UK has roughly the average number of homes per capita: 468 per 1,000 people in 2019.” “even though its population is roughly the same as it was 70 years ago” “the UK’s homes-per-capita ratio actually exceeds the US’s.” The last one is why I brought up the US household size. 2.36 vs 2.67 is a huge difference requiring a great deal of extra housing stock. IMO, using households once at the beginning then swapping to population was intentionally deceptive.
