the case for 62 percent of in-work poor households. Furthermore, 18 percent of in-work poor households have a member who receives benefits in each of the twelve months, and 24 percent are in receipt of benefits for at least six months. Figure 10.

Notes: Timeframe = April 2012 to March 2013. Working and poverty status as defined in Section 3 (based on 725,313 working households). Benefit receipt = at least one adult member in household receiving an MSD benefit in the respective month. 4.9 Home ownership and housing costs Next, we look at the relationship between home ownership and in-work poverty. Figure 11 shows that in-work poor households are less likely to own their own homes than in-work non-poor households (where home ownership is derived from 2013 Census information regarding whether any household member owned or partly owned the dwelling). There are also differences in ownership rates by household structure: while the share of ownership for the in-work poor and in-work non-poor is close (within 5 percentage points) for both couples without children and one-person households, the gap is especially apparent for couples with children (49.8 percent versus 66.4 percent) and single-parent households (37.4 percent versus 48.7 percent).
