Interviewer instructions
Questions 3 to 14 only are asked at dwellings with occupants present classified in one of the circles 01 to 05 of question Number 1 "Type of Dwelling".




Explanations with respect to questions 5 and 6:
These two questions, unlike the rest of the section, refer to the building where the dwelling is, that is to say that in the cases in which apartments or tenement houses are being enumerated, the questions refer to the apartment building or the tenement house where the dwelling is located. If an individual house is being enumerated, the building and the dwelling coincide.




Question Number 6: What is the predominant material in the roof of the building or house?
Mark a single circle according to the material that the largest part of the roof of the building or house is according to the person. The roof refers to the material that protects the largest part of the building or house from the sun or the rain and does not refer to the ceiling. Or that is, if a building or an apartment building or rooms in a tenement house are being enumerated, this question refers to the roof of the building or house.
