These figures are equal to the number of people in the age group projected to live in a 'one adult' household, divided by the projected population of that age and gender (including those living in communal establishments)
Figures for Females (all ages) and Total (all ages) were corrected in 2012. See the page 'Household Projections for Scotland, 2008-Based' on the GROS website for more information.
