Interviewer instructions
Section I: Characteristics of the dwelling

If the class of private dwelling is an independent house, apartment in a building or tenement house and dwelling or room on a roof, ask questions of section 1.

If it is a premises not built for inhabitation, mobile dwelling or shelter, do not ask the questions of section I: Characteristics of the dwelling.




1.2 Number of rooms

The first question refers to the number of rooms (delineated by walls and roof) that are regularly used to sleep, although they have another use.

With the second question, it is to know the total number of rooms that a dwelling has: kitchen, living rooms, dining room, large room, bedroom, or study.

Verify that an informant does not include hallways or bathrooms in any of the two questions.

When in a dwelling, wine cellars, granaries, commercial premises, stores, depots and others similar spaces exist, they are thought of as rooms only if they are used regularly for sleeping. That is, count them as bedrooms and also in the total number of rooms. But if nobody sleeps there, do not count them.

Be careful to point out that all rooms of a dwelling are counted since in some places, the dwellings have separate or independent rooms in the same plot of land.

[To the right of the text is a form for 1.2 Number of rooms.]

[p. 56]

There are dwellings that have a single room that is used for sleeping, cooking, eating, etc; you should consider that the dwelling has a room for sleeping in the first question one room total, for the second question.
