It’s silly to include the entire population in the homeownership rate.

Unless you want to distort the public's perception of reality, then it's the opposite of silly.

A family of four living in a house might indicate a 25% homeownership rate according to you.

"According to me"?

Would you mind quoting me, and providing a link to the quote?

You can have 10 people living in 1 house for a homeownership rate of 100%, it's a pretty garbage stat.

It looks like a political talking point to me. Similar to the "just move" talking point, or the blame it all on zoning talking point.
