Is this including people who live in the same house as their parents?

I would assume so. That would balance the people who live across the country from her.

If you assume the number of people who live across the country from their mother is the same number of people who live with their mother, the balance is completely in favor of the across country people. the difference between 0 and 18 is way less than the difference between 18 and 1200.
