Notes: Working and poverty status as defined in Section 3. Table 13 shows the in-work poverty rate in relation to both home ownership and household type. Here we observe sharply contrasting rates of in-work poverty. The in-work poverty rate for home owners is 5.2 percent, while for renters it is 9.2 percent. A further decomposition according to household structure uncovers that the gap in in-work poverty rates for homeowners and tenants is especially wide for couples with children (4.6 percent versus 8.8 percent) and single parents with children (9.7 percent versus 14.5 percent). The strong association between housing tenure and inwork poverty is consistent with previous research in the UK by Hick and Lanau (2017). Table 13.
