UK Household Acorn Segmentation – 57 Types at UPRN Level

Household Acorn provides **household-level geodemographic segmentation for every UK residential address**, classifying each household into **5 Categories and 57 detailed Household Types**.

Using **UPRN (OS NLPG) or UDPRN (PAF)** identifiers, the dataset enables precise, address-level demographic insight that goes beyond postcode averages. Unlike postcode segmentation (typically covering ~15 households), Household Acorn recognises that households on the same street may differ significantly in life stage, affluence, family structure, and behavioural characteristics.

This granular approach allows organisations to profile customers, residents, or service users with greater accuracy and tailor engagement strategies accordingly.
