Religion and Living Arrangements around the World
This
Pew Research Center’s analysis of data from 130 countries and territories reveals that the size and composition of households often vary by religious affiliation. The average Muslim individual resides in a home of 6.4 people, followed by Hindus at 5.7. Christians fall in the middle at 4.5, followed by Buddhists (3.9), Jews (3.7) and the religiously unaffiliated (3.7). Levels of prosperity are strongly linked with the size and type of household around the world. Holy texts and spiritual leaders have much to say about domestic life. All the major world religions promote specific types of family formations and offer guidance on the roles that people should play within the home.
