Interviewer instructions
<span class="h3">7.3.7 People who are Members of the Household</span></p>
<p>How many people of this household habitually reside in this dwelling?</p>
<p>This question seeks to determine the quantity of people of the household that habitually reside in the dwelling. Record the total people and then the quantity of men and women.</p>
<p>The importance of correctly determining the habitual residency of the people</p>
<p>The way of recording people in the 2011 Population Census is significantly different from previous censuses: instead of asking for who slept in the dwelling the night previous to the Census Day (De Facto Census), in this Population Census we are asking about the people that habitually reside in the dwelling (De Jure Census).</p>
<p>Given that this is a De Jure Census, you must register the people in the dwelling where they habitually reside. This will permit avoiding duplications or omissions of people throughout the census operation.</p>
<p>A correct administration of the concept of habitual resident will be key for counting all the inhabitants of Uruguay only once and in the precise place.</p>
<p>Habitual Resident: is the person that has lived in the dwelling the majority of the last twelve months or that has lived less time there but proposes to continue living there.</p>
<p>Under this definition the habitual residents are:</p>
<ul class="b1">
<li>the people that live permanently in the dwelling and are found present.</li>
<li>the people that live permanently in the dwelling but are temporarily absent, due to work or vacations, or because they are found in boarding institutions for a period less than 12 months.</li>
</ul><p>The habitual residents are not:</p>
<ul class="b1">
<li>the people that have their residency in another place, but are found temporarily in the dwelling interviewed, whether because of visiting, studies, family motives, etc.</li>
<li>the people that if integrated to the household are found absent at the moment of the census, for being boarded in houses of health or hospitals, and will not return to the dwelling for a period of at least 12 months.</li>
</ul><p>Attention: In all of these situations, it is important to assure yourself that the absence is not greater than 12 months. In case of doubt, once you have finished the interview, don't forget to consult the manual and your team leader.
