News release: “The U.S. Census Bureau reports that 76 percent of American parents living with children under 18 are married. Another 16 percent have no partner present, and 8 percent cohabit with a partner. Among parents living with an unmarried partner, two-thirds (66 percent) share a biological child with their partner.  This information comes from America’s Families and Living Arrangements: 2013, tabulations released today using data from the 2013 Annual Social and Economic Supplement to the Current Population Survey.  The table package provides a current portrait of the composition of families and households and shows historical changes in living arrangements in the United States. New this year is a table that profiles American parents living with their children. The table shows that living arrangements are different for mothers than for fathers. Fathers living with their children are much more likely to have a spouse present (86 percent) than mothers (67 percent), while 25 percent of mothers with children under 18 have no partner present, compared with only 6 percent of fathers.”
