ANSWER PERSON RESPONDS: The US Dept. of Agriculture says that “according to the National Christmas Tree Association, in 2000, nearly 31 percent of households displayed a real Christmas tree, while 49 percent displayed an artificial tree. Twenty-one percent had no tree. Two percent said they had both a real tree and an artificial tree.”
There are 112,000,000 total “households” in the US, according to March 2004 estimates from the Census Bureau. That’s family as well as non-family (one person or unrelated persons). Or, in March 2001 (the estimate closest to Christmas 2000), a figure of 108,209,000 total households.
