Interviewer instructions
Q.2 Type of dwelling


26. To identify the type of dwelling, the definitions of paragraph 23 from the present handbook should be taken into account.

Code 1 will be marked for permanent/main dwellings , permanently occupied or unoccupied by members of one or more households.
Code 2 will be marked for seasonal/secondary buildings.


Aseasonal/secondary dwelling is a dwelling designated for a seasonal or secondary use, which architecturally could be inhabited during the entire year, whether it is occupied or not at the census reference point, by persons who already have a permanent dwelling, generally in another locality.

The following should be considered as seasonal/secondary dwellings: private property houses for vacation; a second home unoccupied or temporarily occupied; houses in vineyards with rooms etc., corresponding to the definition of a dwelling (paragraph 23).

An exception to the above mentioned provisions: occupied dwellings situated in buildings to be demolished will be recorded as marginal housing units, and an x will be marked in the box for code 3.

An x will also be written in the box for the code 3 in the case of marginal housing units (as defined in paragraph 23)

If there are two dwellings in the same plot occupied by a single household, on the PL form where the household was recorded (in Chapters I and IV), this dwelling will be considered permanent by marking an x in the box for code 1); the other dwelling will be recorded in the other PL questionnaire as a seasonal dwelling by marking an x in the box of code 2.
