I think you’d want to look at household size - 4 five person households need fewer houses than 10 two person households, even though the population is the same.

- tmnvix 2y agoThat's a good point and I have done that in the past (for NZ). Household size has remained steady over roughly the same period (decade up to 2018 where census data is available). This doesn't account for a possible significant change in household size distribution of course (e.g. the possibility of many more elderly living alone while young people increasingly live in shared housing).
