Definition: Entire household

EU-SILC

Entire household: A sample household is said to be entire (whole) if it remains as one household, without forming an additional household and without the household disappearing, even though there may have been changes in its composition from the previous wave due to deaths, members moving out of scope or co-residents leaving the household, people joining the household or births. http://ec.europa.eu/eur-lex/pri/en/oj/dat/2003/l_298/l_29820031117en00230028.pdf
