Interviewer instructions
2. Household habitation characteristics -- for all households

In this part of the document we will know the characteristics of the part of a dwelling that a household occupies. Because of this, always, in all households we fill out this part of the Document.



Question 10 refers to the number of rooms for the exclusive use of the household.

"Room" is any environment, separated by partitions or walls from the floor to the roof, which have the capacity to put an adult bed in it.
[The instructions refer to a graphic of the census form]

And let use remember Bathrooms and kitchens do not count as rooms.

In cases of dwellings with more than one household, the rooms of common use are not counted.

If there is more than one household sharing a single room we fill out "None".

In cases of dwellings that are a single room, where also they cook, occupied by a single household we will fill out the circle corresponding to one room.

Garages, halls, and utility rooms are not considered rooms unless they are used as a place where a person sleeps.
