The population seems to be growing very well. The normal houshold size would be 3 to 5 people. Before, the man use to be the head of the household, even thought some families still live like that, they're are also women who now take charge. Before, men use to go out to work while women stayed at home and cooked, cleaned, and did all the housework...but now women also have jobs too and men help around wih the house.

The population has been growing over the years. there is diversity with the people. now these days woman is able to do anything she wants without having to think twice.the size of the houshold had changed as well. guys are not the head of the houshold anymore, the woman has a say so in all the choices that are made.

The population is growing because more people are having babies. house hold sizes would be about 3-6 people. I would say 4or5 work and the other stays home and takes care of the house and kids.
