The table presents the percentage of family living in poverty for six different household types in Australia in 1999. Overall, there were 11 percent of all Australian families that met the definition of poor in 1999. Among six categories, families consisting of only one adult are poorer compared to couple families containing a couple. The Sole parents category scored had the highest in the percentage of poor families with 21 percent while the percentage of poor families comprised of couples with children in the household was 12 percent. It is reasonable that households with children would be poorer as it is costly to raise children. The single adult household scored reflected/had the second highest percentage among the six types with 19 percent. In contrast, the percentage of poor couples without children was only 7 percent. The percentage was lowest for aged families type. Only 6 percent of aged single and 4 percent of aged couple households lived in poverty. In conclusion, Australian aged housholds and households with couples families had better life standard lower percentages of living in poverty than single households in 1999.
