This map shows the location of multi-generational households in the United States in 2010. A multigenerational household is a household in with three or more generations reside within a single household. This is shown by using color to represent the count of multigenerational households as a percentage of total households. The size of the symbols represent the count of all multigenerational households within an area.The map shows this pattern for states, counties, tracts, and block groups. There is increasing geographic detail as you zoom in, and only one geography is configured to show at any time. The data source is the US Census Bureau, and the vintage is 2010.

This layer is symbolized to show the approximate percentage of households that are multigenerational households. Multigenerational households are households with three or more generations. These households include either (1) a householder, a parent or parent-in-law of the householder, and an own child of the householder, (2) a householder, an own child of the householder, and a grandchild of the householder, or (3) a householder, a parent or parent-in-law of the householder, an own child of the householder, and a grandchild of the householder. The householder is a person in whose name the home is owned, being bought, or rented, and who answers the survey questionnaire as person 1.Other fields included are estimates of mothers - females 18 to 64 with own children (biological, adopted, or step children) - by various race/ethnic groups, and by age group of children. Age groups were defined by the COVID vaccine age groups: 12 to 17, 5 to 11, and 0 to 4. We also included estimates for mothers of children in more than one of these groups.Data prep steps:Data downloaded on 4/5/22 from FTP site.All fields were calculated from the Census Bureau's 2016-2020 5-year American Community Survey Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) using this SAS program.Using the SAS-ArcGIS Bridge, the data table created in SAS was read into ArcGIS Pro and joined to this layer is PUMA, obtained from Living Atlas. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, a Public Use Micro-sample Area (PUMA) is a "non-overlapping, statistical geographic areas that partition each state or equivalent entity into geographic areas containing no fewer than 100,000 people each." The resulting layer in Pro was then published to ArcGIS Online.Disclaimer: All estimates here contain a margin of error. While they are not explicitly calculated and provided on this layer currently, we can and will add additional fields to provide the margins of error if the need arises.
