Interviewer instructions
<span class="em">Question 6</span>. Does this household have a kitchen or room used for cooking either inside or outside the house?
<br />Read the options and record the corresponding bubble according to the answer given by the interviewee. If the informant states that the kitchen is inside the household fill in code 1; if the kitchen is outside the household, record code 2, and if there is no kitchen in the household record code 3.
<br />You should consider a kitchen as a room or area designated only for cooking purposes, either inside or outside the household.
<br />Actually, there can be various kinds of kitchens or rooms used for cooking purposes. Some can be inside the household, and therefore should be recorded with code 1: Yes, inside the household, while code 2 if Yes, outside the household.
<br />Some examples of code 1, Yes inside the household, are:</p>
<ul class="b1">
<li>The kitchen is a room inside the household.</li>

<li>The kitchen is an area adjacent to the living room, not completely separated by a wall, but by a banister or a breakfast bar. This type of kitchen can be found in apartments as well as households.</li>
</ul><span class="pg">[Page 41]</span><ul class="b1">
<li>The kitchen is an area within the living room and does not have any type of division; however the area contains all appliances and furniture for cooking.</li>
</ul><p>Some examples of code 2: Yes, outside the household, are: </p>
<ul class="b1">
<li>The kitchen is a room or a building separated from the household. This type of kitchen is common in the rural zones, and it could also appear in some households in the urban zone, especially in small cities or in big and in the outskirts or suburbs of somewhat larger cities. </li>
