Full edition for scientific use. The topic of the Microcensus survey in September 2001 is about family-related topics. It is more or less a repetition of the survey conducted in June 1991. Then as well as now the Microcensus questions give additional information, important for social research, to the one gathered in the population census. These questions are on the size, structure and contact-density of family networks across the boarders of the household, as well as on the change in the timing of central biographical events (moving out of the parents house, first relationship, first marriage, birth of the first child), or the change in the number of children. The survey program consists of 4 parts: questions on biological relations, questions on moving out of the parents house, questions on marriage and divorce, questions on the desire to have children.
