Notes:               Size refers to the number of persons whose usual place of residence at
                     the time of the interview is in the sample unit.
                     
                     A consumer unit comprises either: (1) all members of a particular
                     household who are related by blood, marriage, adoption, or other legal
                     arrangements; (2) a person living alone or sharing a household with
                     others or living as a roomer in a private home or lodging house or in
                     permanent living quarters in a hotel or motel, but who is financially
                     independent; or (3) two or more persons living together who use their
                     income to make joint expenditure decisions. Financial independence is
                     determined by the three major expense categories: Housing, food, and
                     other living expenses. To be considered financially independent, at
                     least two of the three major expense categories have to be provided
                     entirely, or in part, by the respondent.
