Interviewer instructions
Question No. 1: Type of dwelling
The purpose of this question is to determine the type of existing dwellings in our country.
Identify the type of dwelling by observation and basing yourself on the definitions described beginning on the following page.
In case of doubt, ask questions that you consider are able to clarify best what kind of dwelling is being considered. Mark a single circle.
[Below the text is a "Type of Dwelling" form that is not filled out.]
You should keep in mind the following definitions:
[p. 31]
a. Private permanent (Circle 01):
It is built with long lasting materials such as: concrete, concrete blocks, bricks, stone, wood, adobe, clay covered plant fiber (quincha), etc. It can also be totally or partially built. Semi-detached houses or duplexes are considered individual permanent dwellings.
Examples:
[Below the text are 3 photographs of individual permanent dwellings, labeled Brick house, Wooden house and quincha house.]
[p. 32]
b. Private Semi-permanent (Circle 02):
It is built with materials of medium to short duration, such as cane, straw, palm leaves, bamboo, etc.
[To the right of the text is a photograph of an individual semi-permanent dwelling.]
b. Improvised (Circle 03):
It is built with temporary means and generally forms part of the "Spontaneous Settlements or Emergency Areas". It is built with material like: old wood, pieces of zinc, tin, cardboard, canvas, cloth, or plastic.
[To the left of the text is a photograph of an improvised dwelling]
c. Apartment (Circle 04):
It is a dwelling unit with toilet facilities and a bath of private use located in a building where three or more similar dwellings exist within the same piece of land. This type of dwelling can be found with one floor or as a building with two or more floors.
[To the right of the text is a photograph of an apartment building.]
d. Room in tenement housing (Circle 05):
It constitutes one or more rooms in a tenement house that occupies part of a building composed of many dwellings and do not have toilet facilities, or bath, of private use. The occupants of these dwellings share the use of toilet facilities and bath.
[To the left of the text is a photograph of a tenement house.]
[p. 33]
e. Place not intended for habitation but used as a dwelling (Circle 06):
It refers to any place or space not meant principally as a dwelling such as: a doorway, vessel, granary, garage, stable, office, store, etc.
If you mark this circle (06) do not ask the rest of the dwelling questions and begin filling out Section III. Household information.
[To the left of the text is a photograph of a ship.]
f. Without Dwelling: Mark this circle when you meet persons who do not have a place to live and sleep in the elements (indigents). Also victims are included in this category.
Victims (Circle 07): Mark this circle when persons claim to have remained without dwelling due to any natural phenomenon like floods, landslides, accidents, etc., remember not to ask the rest of the dwelling questions and begin filling out Section III. Household information.
Indigents (Circle 08): Mark this circle when persons do not have a dwelling, but rather they sleep in the street, sidewalks, parks, push carts, etc. remember not to ask the rest of the questions and go to Section IV. (List of Occupants).
g. Collective Dwelling:
As it is explained before, a collective dwelling is used and meant to be used as special living quarters combined of persons generally without family ties who live together for reasons of discipline, health, education, religious life, work and others such as reformatories, jails, penal colonies, hospitals, sanatoriums, nursing homes, hotels, etc.
It can be occupied by a collective home, which is the most frequent.
It can be part of a private home.
If you find a private home while a collective dwelling is being enumerated, use another questionnaire for registering the information about the members of the private home.
