In 2020, the total number of private household members in Japan amounted to more than 123 million, reversing the upward trend since the initiation of the Population Census. Even though Japan's number of private households has grown in the last decades, the number of members per household has experienced a consistent decrease, indicating the increase in one-person and nuclear-family households.
