Household counts by type for the five New York City counties (boroughs). Sourced from the 2020 Decennial Census Demographic and Housing Characteristics (DHC) file, table P16 ("Household type"). The family / non-family split sums exactly to total_households. The county-level counterpart of nyc_tract_20_household_df. Joins to nycmaps::nyc_boros_sf via the county column, which matches nycmaps::nyc_boros$short_county_name.
