The general demographic picture of the Vojvodina family was analyzed according to the 2002 population census. The prevailing family type is a married couple with children. In relation to the previous census, there has been an increase of single-parent families. The family in Vojvodina is ethnically homogeneous. Families with secondary education of both men and women are dominant, except in the type of married couples without children where the woman is mainly with uncompleted primary school. Family structure according to activities varies according to type of family unit, where there is birth differentiation as well. The most frequent families are those without children in which the woman is supported, and the man works. As regards families with children, the most frequent units are those in which both woman and man are active and working, but families in which only the man works are dominant
