In Italy we have various types of families.

Italy has about 60 million inhabitants, distributed in 25.7 million families, of which about 8.5 million single-member families, with single mothers and fathers, and 17.2 million households of at least two people.

Among Italian families with at least two people, there are 5.5 million families without children. There are 11.6 million families with children, of which 8.8 million are couples and 2.8 million are single-parent families, therefore with a single parent with children. Most of the single parents are women: 2.3 million are single mothers with children against 500 thousand fathers.

Families without children are more present in the north, while couples with children predominate in the south.

Childless couples and single-parent households are on the rise, while couples with children are decreasing.

There are around 6 million families with one child, followed by around 4.4 million families with two children. There are about one million households with three or more children.

There are 14.3 million couples in Italy, of which 8.8 million with children and 5.5 without. A type of household that can be childless or with children, married or unmarried, of the opposite sex or of the same sex.

The data on married couples is a little surprising, still very high in our country: 90.4% of Italian couples are married, compared to 9.6% of unmarried couples. The figure is constantly growing.

There are 1.6 million families with at least one resident foreign member, there are about one million couples, of which 680 thousand with both foreign members and 320 thousand mixed couples.
