Obviously, more male than female respondents participated in the survey. Particularly in the middle-aged and
young households, in which only one member answered the questions, women are under represented. Table A.3
presents an overview of the age of the respondents. The age of the young and middle-aged respondents turns
out to be rather uniformly distributed, but half of the elderly have an age between 65 and 70. Apparently, also
some very old respondents participated in the survey.
