Notes:

1 The 10% sample of the 1996 Census is available only in five-year age groups.

2 Recode-1 classifies women resident in the second round of ACDIS (2000) as ‘living together’ providing that they are not currently married (never married, widowed, divorced and separated), and their partner was a member of the same household (resident or non-resident).

3 Recode-2 classifies women as ‘living together’ only if they are not currently married and have a co-resident partner in the same household.
