Interviewer instructions
Questions 3 to 15 are only asked at dwellings with occupants present (Circle 1).




Question 5 How many rooms does the dwelling have?

(Do not include the kitchen, toilet or bath)

Room:
It is any separated chambers used for means of lodging. The rooms can be separated by fixed walls of any material, which constitutes an effective division between the different chambers.
When this question is asked, clarify to the enumerated person what should be included as rooms or not, what should be considered for a better understanding is detailed below:

[p. 42]

[Below the text are two lists.]

Include

Living room
Dining room
Study
Recreation room
Domestic servant's room
Rooms always ceded or rented and when they are within an enumerated dwelling (more than one home in a dwelling)

Do not include

Kitchen
Bathroom
Hallways
Terraces
Doorways
Attics (that are not used as sleeping rooms)
Annexes that are rented and have an independent entrance
Those that are used exclusively for commercial, industrial or service (shop, workshop, depositories of grain and other products, elevated storage rooms (jorones), stalls for animals, etc.) reasons.

Finally, write down with two numbers in the corresponding space the total number of rooms that the enumerated dwelling has, putting a zero in front if the amount is less than ten.

Question Number 5a Of these [rooms] how many are for sleeping?

The objective that this question pursues is to quantify the total number of rooms which are in the home and that are used only for sleeping even if they have not been built for this purpose. The information obtained will permit us to know the level of housing of the home.
Write down in Arabic numbers in the corresponding space the amount of rooms exclusive for sleeping that the enumerated dwelling has, even if they have not been built for this purpose. Consider attics, only, if they are used only for sleeping. Write down " 00" if the dwelling does not have any room exclusive for sleeping.
The number of rooms in this question should be less than the total number of rooms mentioned in question 5.

[p. 43]
