Description The growing incidence of unmarried cohabitation has often been pointed out as one of the most remarkable changes in the behavior of the Czech population. Surprisingly, there is only indirect or outdated empirical evidence documenting this claim. We estimate the prevalence of cohabitation using three relatively recent surveys. We also use survival analysis to show that, unlike marriage, people have not been postponing co-residential unions after 1989.
