Householders
Householder
refers to the person (or one of the people) in whose name the housing unit is owned or rented (maintained) or, if there is no such person, any adult member, excluding roomers, boarders, or paid employees. If the house is owned or rented jointly by a married couple, the householder may be either spouse.
Households are diverse; the racial or ethnic identity of a household’s members may not match that of the householder.
