The Percentage of Homes with 4 or More People in Them

Do You Know How Many People Live in the Average Plymouth Home?

When helping people move, it’s not just about bricks and mortar, it’s about understanding how households live today.


According to the latest Census data, the South West region of England has 17.6% of households with four or more people living under one roof. 
Knowledge of this highlights the importance of homes that offer space, flexibility, and functionality.


Larger households often look for homes with generous living areas, multiple bathrooms, good parking, and proximity to schools. Whether it's growing families, multi-generational living, or people simply needing more room to breathe, the local demand for space is real and growing.
At Smeaton Homes, we keep a close eye on trends like these. Why? Because it helps us match homes with the right buyers faster. Whether you're upsizing, downsizing, or just curious about how household trends could affect your home’s value, we're here to help.


In the coming week’s we will be analysing Plymouth and looking at the exact numbers for our city and what that means for homeowners and buyers alike.
