Abstract: ABSTRACT Never before have regional scientists had access to individual census data for an entire country. The paper describes the application of a taxonomic procedure to classify the 15.6 million households identified by the 1971 Italian census. The results are important both for what they reveal about Italian social structure and because they provide a basis for a constructing aggregate census data so that within area variations are retained.
