Figures also show that there is a decline in the number of people under the age of 30 who are cohabiting, yet an increase in adult couples aged over 30 who are living together.
Further research shows that between 2001 and 2010 the number of opposite sex cohabiting couple families increased from 2.1 million to 2.7 million.(ii)
This means that the total number of children growing up in households where adults are unmarried has increased from 1.3 million to 1.8 million in the same time.
It is not just unmarried couples living together who are pushing up the trend. Groups of friends are collectively pooling their cash together to buy properties and live together for longer.

A policy could safeguard finances in the event of death.
