However, the shared household model of living (not in a couple or within own family) extensively spreads among independently living individuals alongside this 'privatization'. The milieu of this specific households, which represent so called 'chosen families' consisting of flat mates and friends in the flat or house rented in group, is along with single occupied households the source of what is described as 'urban tribes'.
