我们使用一种新的程序来编码老年人与其他家庭成员的关系，研究了家庭类型和代际构成中的年龄、性别和居住地区差异。大多数长者居住在某种形式的家庭中；最常见的是 65 至 79 岁的二人家庭、80 岁至 89 岁的单人家庭以及 90 岁以上的两代家庭。总体而言，老年人更有可能生活在两代家庭中，而不是三代家庭中。
Using a new procedure for coding the relationships of elders to other household members, we examined age, gender, and area-of-residence differences in household type and generational composition. The majority of elders live in some form of family household; most prevalent are two-person, married-couple-only households at ages 65–79, one-person households at ages 80–89, and two-generation households at ages 90 +. Overall, elders are more likely to live in two- than in three-generation households.
