Average Household Size in El Salvador: 4.4 People (Declining)

According to the World Bank, the average household size in El Salvador is 4.4 people (as of recent data).

This represents a decline from ~5.0 in the 1990s, driven by:

• Declining fertility rates
• Increasing urbanization
• Migration (remittance-receiving households may be smaller)
• Changing family structures

Household size remains larger than in developed nations but is converging.
