Family & Households in Ascot
How families and households are made up across the area.
Over half of all families in Ascot are couples with children, making them the most common household type. However, the area is also marked by a very high number of people living alone compared to the rest of the country. This mix helps explain why the typical home in Ascot holds fewer people than the state average.
