This page tells you how many people were living in the average home in each village around Dholera. It matters because household size is one of the few census numbers that hints at how families here are actually structured, and it varies more than most people expect across villages that are a few kilometres apart.

The short version

Aniyali Bhimji recorded the largest households at 7.09 people each, then Chhasiyana at 6.55 and Zinzar at 6.54. The smallest average is 4.21. The whole range sits between four and seven, which is a narrow band, and that narrowness is itself the honest finding.

What this ranking is

This is the last time anybody counted these villages one by one and published the answer. The Census of India sent enumerators to every village in the country in 2011 and asked the same questions everywhere, which is what makes the answers comparable. The amenity questions were asked in 2009. That is old, and we say so on every figure, but it is the only complete, uniform and free record of what was on the ground before the industrial city arrived. If you want to understand what Dholera SIR was built on top of, this is the baseline.

None of this describes 2026. Roads have been built, land has changed hands and the expressway has opened since the surveyors came. Read it as the starting line, not the current score.

Which villages are in it. The 69 villages of Dhandhuka taluka, sub-district code 03787, plus the three Barwala taluka villages that appear on the Dholera development authority's own 22 village boundary map. Seventy two villages in all. Census 2011 has no Dholera taluka because Dholera taluka was only created in 2015, so the villages sit under the taluka names the Census used at the time.

What the numbers say

Every village in this set falls between roughly four and seven people to a household. There is no outlier and no dramatic split between the villages inside the notified industrial boundary and those outside it. When a ranking is this tight, saying so is more useful than pretending the top of the list means something.

The highest figure is 7.09 people per household and the lowest is 4.21 people per household. The middle village of the ranking sits at 5.42 people per household.

How to use this without being misled

Treat this as background rather than as a decision input. It is here because it is a genuine, separately sorted column of the same official record, and because a page that admits its own ranking is narrow is more trustworthy than one that dresses a narrow ranking up as a discovery.
