Isn't this the same?
If 6 out of 10 households own and actually live in their owned property, than 60% own and 40% rent.
I think regarding the numbers in this statistic you are right. But there are people who don't have their own property, but also don't rent, for example homeless people or if you let your family live on your property without taking rent of them.
