The residence when a married couple lives with or near the father is :

  • A.Neo-local
  • B.Matrilocal
  • C.Avunculocal
  • D.Patrilocal

Answer: D

A married couple living with or near the husband's father has a patrilocal residence.

Patrilocal (or virilocal) residence means the bride moves to the home of the groom's father, as in the traditional joint families of much of India.

Matrilocal residence is with or near the wife's family, avunculocal is with or near the husband's mother's brother, as in some matrilineal societies, and neo-local means the couple sets up a new home of its own, separate from both families.
