Six kinds of household equanimity:

The equanimity that arises when a foolish, deluded person — a run-of-the-mill, untaught person who has not conquered his limitations or the results of action and who is blind to danger — sees a form with the eye. Such equanimity does not go beyond the form, which is why it is called household equanimity.

(Similarly with the other senses)

(from Majjhima Nikaya 137)
