Interviewer instructions
A room is defined as a space in a dwelling unit enclosed by walls reaching from the floor to the ceiling or roof covering, or to a height of at least two meters, of an area large enough to hold a bed for an adult, that is, at least four square meters. The total number of types of rooms therefore includes bedrooms, dining rooms, living rooms, studies, habitable attics, servants' rooms, kitchens, rooms used for professional or business purposes, and other separate spaces used or intended for dwelling purposes, so long as they meet the criteria concerning walls and floor space.
§ the number of rooms will be collected, with KITCHEN, considered as a room.
§ Passageways, verandas, lobbies, bathrooms and toilet rooms SHOULD NOT be counted as rooms, even if they meet the criteria.
§ A partially divided room, such as a dinette next to a kitchen or living room, is a separate room only if there is a partition from floor to ceiling, but not if the partition consists solely of shelves or cabinets.
§ If a room is used by occupants of more than one apartment, include the room with the unit from which it is most easily reached.
