2	Ambilocal, i.e., residence established optionally with or near the parents of either the husband or the wife, depending upon circumstances or personal choice, where neither alternative exceeds the other in actual frequency by a ratio greater than two to one.
3	Optionally uxorilocal or avunculocal. This may be the case in a uxorilocal society where many men marry a MoBrDa and thus, in fact, live avunculocally
4	Optionally patrilocal (or virilocal) or avunculocal
5	Matrilocal, i.e., normal residence with or near the female matrilineal kinsmen of the wife. Cf. U Uxorilocal
6	Neolocal, i.e., normal residence apart from the relatives of both spouses or at a place not determined by the kin ties of either

12	Ambilocal, with a marked preponderance of virilocal practice (i.e., virilocal option exceeds uxorilocal option in actual frequency by a ratio greater than two to one).
