In general I favor partials (depending on the situation), simply because
that logic is now re-usable. If you need to have that same list displayed
on multiple pages you can simply call the partial. I also like to create
view helpers to pass entities to so that they are consistently displayed
across the site.

<?php foreach($this->houses as $house) :
<tr>
<td><?php echo $this->printTypes($types);?></td>
<td><?php echo $this->escape($house->ownership);?></td>
<td><?php echo $this->escape($house->income);?></td>
<td><?php echo $this->printMembers($members);?></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach ?>

That way, if you want to adjust how you display the types or members, you
can change it in one place and your entire site remains consistent.
