The table compares about people in households by types of household and family in the UK from 1971 to 2007.
Overall, it can be seen that while the proportion of dependent and non-dependent children exhibited downward trends, the rest experienced an upward trend.
In detail, dependent children stood at just over a half (52%) in 1971, followed by a gradual dip in the remaining years, to finish at approximately one-third (36%) in 2007. Despite being just under a fifth (19%) in 1971, 'no children' between 1971 and 2001, however, witnessed a mild swell to 25%, where it (25%) then levelled off until the end (2007). Surprisingly, 'lone parent' and 'one person' were almost identical in the orientation (increasing) throughout the period. 'One person' soared doubled to 12% (2007) from 6% (1971), whereas the final year stayed three times higher than first year (12% vs 4%) as regards 'lone parent'.
Turning to non-dependent children, there was only a marginal reduction, which meant that the figure declined from 10% (1971) to 9% (2007).
