In 2011, the average slum household in India had 4.7 people. This number was a decrease from 2001. The government defines slums as residential areas with poorly built households. These are most often unhygienic and unfit for human habitation because of dilapidation, overcrowding, lack of sanitation, water and infrastructure.
